web:character-encoding-filter

[dd_la_frime]

Hello,

I took a look to the web-1.2.xsd and did not find the element name character-encoding-filter ? Am I missing something ?
Maybe it will explain why I can't override the character encoding of the client and the fact that I can't get my well formed html params in GET action.

Cheers.

Christophe.

It's there in 1.2.1.GA

I don't understand what you're saying.
I'm already using seam 1.2.1 GA.
What I'm saying is that in the components.cml you have to add these lines "http://jboss.com/products/seam/web http://jboss.com/products/seam/web-1.2.xsd" to use the we:character-encoding-filter and this attribute name doesn't exist in web-1.2.xsd.
Do I have to change the declaration of the xsd ?

Cheers.

It exists in the one I have (but as an element, not an attribute, which is correct)

pmuir@animal:~$ cat jboss-seam-1.2.1.GA/src/main/org/jboss/seam/web-1.2.xsd
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

 ...

 <xs:element name="character-encoding-filter">

 </xs:complexType>
 </xs:element>

Ok me too I've got it in seam sources.
So how did you declare it in the components.xml ? You must not use the http one, right ?

Cheers.

Make sure you have the namespace available - add to the element

xmlns:core="http://jboss.com/products/seam/core"

and then add configuration as needed -

<web:character-encoding-filter encoding="UTF-16"
 override-client="true"
 url-pattern="*.seam"/>

N.B. This is all in the ref. manual

[dd_la_frime]

you must have this one also : xmlns:web="http://jboss.com/products/seam/web"

Anyway it's still not working I can't have my french character [é|à|è|...]

oops sorry, bad copy and paste ;) Sorry, I'm no expert on i8ln. You can check whether the seam character encoding filter is running using your debugger...

According to the reference http://docs.jboss.com/seam/1.2.1.GA/reference/en/html_single/ character encoding filter

Sets the character encoding of submitted form data.

I suppose that this means POST requests and explanes why this filter doesn't work for the POST requests, am I right?

If yes how is it possible to override the character encoding for GET requests?
