Answer 1

My simple solution:

@RequestMapping(value="test")
public ModelAndView test(){
  String test = "čćžđš";
  ...
  ModelAndView mav = new ModelAndView("html_utf8");
  mav.addObject("responseBody", test);
}

and the view html_utf8.jsp

<%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html; charset=UTF-8" pageEncoding="UTF-8"%>${responseBody}

No additional classes and configuration.
And You can also create another view (for example json_utf8) for other content type.
