Change Tomcat's Charset.defaultCharset in windows

Question

I\'m using tomcat 6.0.32 in windows 7. Inside a very simple servlet, inside the init method, I\'m printing:

System.out.println(Charset.defaultCharset());
         


        

Answer 1

Try setting the (Windows) environment variable JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS to -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 and start the Tomcat Server.

Will get more idea from this link: Setting the default Java character encoding
