Identity file character encoding by TlvParser #38

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Read out identity eid-applet deployed on non-utf8 default encodig environment
2. Identity containing special characters like é,ë, ...

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
1.0.0.GA

Please provide any additional information below.

The TlvParser class will construct a java string from the byte[] in the 
identity file but does not 
specify a CharSet, leaving the encoding depending on the environment the applet 
is run in, so 
sometimes ISO-56.. encoded strings are returned

If the TlvParser could so something like : 

fieldValue = new String(tlvValue, Charset.forName("UTF8"));

would solve the issue imo.

Best regards,
Wim.
