Why is EAP 7 / Undertow using UTF-8 for its default URI encoding?
Issue
- We see Undertow in EAP 7 now uses a UTF-8 URI encoding by default. JBossWeb in EAP 6 previously used
'ISO-8859-1and the servlet spec suggests'ISO-8859-1should be used for encoding by default. So why this change moving to Undertow?
Environment
- JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (EAP) 7.x
