FeedAdapter and HttpSyncAdapter with UTF-8

[bgoetzmann]

Hello,

Developing my application with Mesh4j, I found and I resolved two
problems in relation with UTF-8 :

1. In FeedAdapter.java and its flush method, I changed:

XMLWriter writer = new XMLWriter(new FileWriter(this.feedFile));

by

OutputStreamWriter oswriter = new OutputStreamWriter(
new FileOutputStream(this.feedFile), "UTF-8" );
XMLWriter writer = new XMLWriter(oswriter);

That permits to be sure to work with UTF-8 encoding, and it works
correctly when writing content with accented caracters.
According to JavaDoc, FileWriter "The constructors of this class
assume that the default character encoding and the default byte-buffer
size are acceptable. To specify these values yourself, construct an
OutputStreamWriter on a FileOutputStream."

2. The second problem comes from HttSyncAdapter.java.

Data POSTed should be in UTF-8 encoding ; I made this change in the
writeData method:

out.write(content);

replaced by:

out.write(new String(content.getBytes("UTF-8")));
