Character encoding in multipart/form-data

[talp1]

Hi Ste-gr, I've tried your 1.5.0 RC2 and it's great! Finally Struts 1 in Jakarta EE9!

Only problem I have is with character encoding of text field in "multipart/form-data" forms, it's always ISO-8859-1, regardless of page encoding (I use UTF-8 everywhere). For the moment I've bypassed the problem adding the line:

factory.setCharset(Charset.forName(request.getCharacterEncoding()));

in "org.apache.struts.upload:CommonsMultipartRequestHandler" after:

DiskFileItemFactory.Builder factory = DiskFileItemFactory.builder();

Maybe there is a cleanest solution via configuration, but I didn't find it :(

Can you tell me if it's possible to do them via configuration or if it could be useful to add my modification (perhaps improved) in the next release?

Thanks

Ale

@ste-gr We were experiencing the same problem with our application and did basically the same patch. It worked fine.
