I have a WEB system and I was asked to put emoticons to send email.
I had some problems with the coding of the database which is Oracle and the NLS_CHARACTERSET was defined as WE8MSWIN1252. Not to change the structure of the bank I made a solution that saves the emoticons in a field of type BLOB, that is to say:
// pego esse valor e salvo no BD na coluna Tipo BLOB
String em = emoji.getBytes("UTF-8");
To redeem the value of emoji as String i do:
// BLOB formatado para string
String em = new String(getEmoji, "UTF-8");
If I make one System.out.printl(em) emoji usually appears on my console, but when I send this String for a value of <h:inputText/> there appears a black diamond with a ?.
I’ve been trying to solve for hours, including changing JBOSS settings to UTF-8 encoding and xhtml files are saved as UTF-8. Could someone point me in some direction towards the solution?
Updating The HTML header is as follows:
<f:view contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8"
encoding="UTF-8"
xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xmlns:ui="http://java.sun.com/jsf/facelets"
xmlns:h="http://java.sun.com/jsf/html"
xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core"

As suggested by Gustavo Fragoso I saved the emoji string 🍔 by passing the value to inputText the string was converted to
Update: As suggested by Gustavo Fragoso could be a problem with my browser but it is not; I am using a library called jQuery-emoji-Picker and my front-end works perfectly, if I click on some emoji it will normally for input, the problem is when I do the reverse ie, if the emoji string comes from the bank or if I manually paste the emoji in inputText value when rendering html the emojis are converted to ; i was almost certain that some configuration in JBOSS was converting all request and Response to other encoding than UTF-8; so I made a filter that forced HTTP requests for UTF-8 encoding and it was like this:
package br.com.dt.filter;
import static org.jboss.seam.ScopeType.APPLICATION;
import static org.jboss.seam.ScopeType.APPLICATION;
import java.io.IOException;
import javax.servlet.FilterChain;
import javax.servlet.ServletException;
import javax.servlet.ServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.ServletResponse;
import org.jboss.seam.annotations.Install;
import org.jboss.seam.annotations.Name;
import org.jboss.seam.annotations.Scope;
import org.jboss.seam.annotations.intercept.BypassInterceptors;
import org.jboss.seam.annotations.web.Filter;
import org.jboss.seam.web.AbstractFilter;
@Scope(APPLICATION)
@Name("encodingFilter")
@Install(precedence = Install.BUILT_IN)
@BypassInterceptors
@Filter
public class EncodingFilter extends AbstractFilter{
/** Preform the filtering. */
public void doFilter(ServletRequest request, ServletResponse response, FilterChain chain) throws IOException, ServletException {
response.setContentType("text/html; charset=UTF-8");
request.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8");
response.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8");
chain.doFilter(request, response);
}
}
more unsuccessfully, so I set up JBOSS on standalone.xml by putting:
system-properties
property name="file.encoding" value="utf-8"/
property name="org.apache.catalina.connector.URI_ENCODING" value="UTF-8"/
property name="org.apache.catalina.connector.USE_BODY_ENCODING_FOR_QUERY_STRING" value="true"/
/system-properties
more also unsuccessful so far.
Updating:
In Web Resources - Configuration there are several configuration files of faces-config.xml and one of them is called jsf-facelets.jar and see how this is configured:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
<!DOCTYPE faces-config PUBLIC
"-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD JavaServer Faces Config 1.1//EN"
"http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-facesconfig_1_1.dtd">

is this ISO-8859-1 configuration the reason for this problem?
Does your html file have a charset set set in header? Saving as utf-8 is one thing, another is how browser interprets.
– Gustavo Fragoso
Yes; the header is as follows: <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" /> also sets f:view to: f:view contenttype="text/html; charset=UTF-8" encoding="UTF-8"

Alex, you don’t have to put
#in place of<and>. Just select the code and pressCtrl+Kor the button{}editor. See more tips on how to format code in help center– hkotsubo
