Example

This example demonstrates how this works in a BBJSP web-page

<%
    #getResponse().setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8")
%>
<html>
    <body>
        <h1>Hello from BBJSP</h1>
    </body>
</html>

This example demonstrates how this works in a BBJSP servlet

class public MyServlet

  field private BBjspWebRequest request!
  field private BBjspWebResponse response!
  field private BBjspWebSession session!

  method public void service(BBjspServletContext context!)

    #request! = context!.getRequest()
    #response! = context!.getResponse()

    #response!.setContentType("text/html")
    s! = #response!.getOutputStream()

    #response!.setCharacterEncoding("UTF-8")
    s!.write("<html><body><h1>Hello from BBJSP</h1>")
    s!.write("</body></html>")
