[WW-3179] StrutsPrepareAndExecuteFilter and StrutsPrepareFilter causes i18n problems

• Type: Bug
• Status: Closed

• Component/s: Dispatch Filter

Environment

Apache Tomcat 6.0.18

Description

The request parameters are processed in the incorrect character encoding since both filters call request.getParameterMap() before request.setCharacterEncoding().
The lines:
prepare.createActionContext(request, response); // invokes request.getParameterMap()
prepare.assignDispatcherToThread();
prepare.setEncodingAndLocale(request, response); // invokes request.setCharacterEncoding()
