Character encoding for incell editing

Hi, I'm having some trouble editing a table using <p:rowEditor>

I use encoding='windows-1252' to be able to use Swedish characters (å, ä, ö). Creating an entity works fine but when I edit it in a <p:dataTable> using <p:cellEditor> it commits characters that are unexpected. (If i enter "åäö" and save the edit (using p:celleditor), the table in the database contains "Ã¥Ã¤Ã¶").

My xhtml page starts like this:

Code: Select all

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='windows-1252' ?> 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html...

I've tried using a Character Encoding Filter:

Code: Select all

public class CharacterEncodingFilter implements Filter {

    private static String ENCODING = "windows-1252";

    @Override
    public void destroy() {
    }

    @Override
    public void doFilter(ServletRequest request, ServletResponse response, FilterChain chain) throws IOException, ServletException {
        request.setCharacterEncoding(ENCODING);
        response.setCharacterEncoding(ENCODING);
        chain.doFilter(request, response);
    }

    @Override
    public void init(FilterConfig config) throws ServletException {
    }
}

But to no avail. Any ideas why incell editing posts using a different character encoding?

Thanks for your help.
Dennis.
