How to use the mail activitiy with unicode characters in text fields

Dieter Staudt — Thu, 11 May 2017 10:39:30 -0400

Dear all,

since the end of 2016 we are able to store utf-8 / unicode characters in mssql databases (see #2210 - How to store mandarin chinese text into a MsSql database). But we tried to use this posibility with the mail activity. But we have no succes :-(

The internal fields in the data clause which will be passed to the mail are correct. But the result will show ? for each unicode character. For exanple: CHANGE: Expiration date changed ????SHANGHAI

What can we do that the sended / received mails will contain unicode characters.

Best Regards Dieter

How to store mandarin chinese text into a MsSql database

SupportIvyTeam — Tue, 22 Nov 2016 14:31:55 -0500

I'm trying to insert UTF-8 encoded strings with mandarin language (e.g. 文化大學華 hey) into a MsSql table. The Collation is Latin1_General_CI_AS.

But the special characters are always stored with question mark characters (e.g. ????? hey). How can I store the values so that they can be read afterwards?

Project Build Plugin UTF-8 Encoding

Michael — Fri, 23 Sep 2016 11:27:38 -0400

Is there a setting for the source encoding in the Project Build Plugin? Changing the default encoding (windows-1252) to UTF-8 results in a wrong class file.

For example the following class

public class Test {
    private String test = "Hans im Glück";
}

results in the following class file

....
Hans im GlÃƒÂ¼ck
....

Compiling in the Designer results in the correct

...
"Hans im GlÃ¼ck"
...

Axis and UTF-8 encoding (even when Content-Type is set different e.g. text/xml;charset=iso-8859-1) Update or workaround?

Wolfgang Heil — Mon, 27 Oct 2014 13:30:40 -0400

The Axis Version (1.4 1156 May 23 2006) currently used in ivy still contains the following bug: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AXIS2-4468 which is fixed with Axis 1.6

In some environments this leads to problems. Is there an easy workaround and when do you plan to upgrade to a newer Axis release?

Thanks a lot

How to use UTF-8 encoding for Html Pages

Christian Strebel — Fri, 13 Dec 2013 09:54:09 -0500

What steps are necessary to use UTF-8 character encoding (charset) for the Html Pages (JSP)? This is useful to support more special characters and be more compatible with the Html Dialog (JSF) which is per default UTF-8 encoded.
