messages german umlauts utf-8 idp 3.x

[Raffael Sahli]

Hi

I have german umlauts within my de translation file.

I got these working with the following modification in system/conf/global-system.xml:

      <bean id="messageSource" class="org.springframework.context.support.ReloadableResourceBundleMessageSource"
              p:cacheSeconds="%{idp.message.cacheSeconds:300}"
              p:basenames-ref="%{idp.message.resources:shibboleth.MessageSourceResources}">
          <property name="defaultEncoding" value="UTF-8" />
      </bean>

Why isn't "<property name="defaultEncoding" value="UTF-8" />" per default set?


Cio,
