I am using the GeoServer REST Configuration to add the following SLD file to GeoServer:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<StyledLayerDescriptor version="1.0.0" xmlns:ogc="http://www.opengis.net/ogc" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.opengis.net/sld http://schemas.opengis.net/sld/1.0.0/StyledLayerDescriptor.xsd" xmlns="http://www.opengis.net/sld">
<NamedLayer>
<Name>MyWorkspace:MyLayer</Name>
<UserStyle>
<Name>MyLayer_default_style</Name>
<Title>MyLayer</Title>
<Abstract>Default style for Mylayer</Abstract>
<FeatureTypeStyle>
<Rule>
<Title>Polygon</Title>
<PolygonSymbolizer>
<Fill>
<CssParameter name="fill">#CBCCCC</CssParameter>
</Fill>
<Stroke>
<CssParameter name="stroke">#CBCCCC</CssParameter>
<CssParameter name="stroke-width">1</CssParameter>
</Stroke>
</PolygonSymbolizer>
</Rule>
</FeatureTypeStyle>
</UserStyle>
</NamedLayer>
</StyledLayerDescriptor>
I have used the example from the GeoServer REST Docs and the sld file is added to GeoServer like expected. But the encoding of the sld file in GeoServer is now "UTF-8" instead of "ISO-8859-1" which I declared. See the SLD created by GeoServer below:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<sld:StyledLayerDescriptor xmlns="http://www.opengis.net/sld" xmlns:sld="http://www.opengis.net/sld" xmlns:ogc="http://www.opengis.net/ogc" xmlns:gml="http://www.opengis.net/gml" version="1.0.0">
<sld:NamedLayer>
<sld:Name>MyWorkspace:MyLayer</sld:Name>
<sld:UserStyle>
<sld:Name>MyLayer_default_style</sld:Name>
<sld:Title>MyLayer</sld:Title>
<sld:Abstract>Default style for Mylayer</sld:Abstract>
<sld:FeatureTypeStyle>
<sld:Name>name</sld:Name>
<sld:Rule>
<sld:Title>Polygon</sld:Title>
<sld:PolygonSymbolizer>
<sld:Fill>
<sld:CssParameter name="fill">#CBCCCC</sld:CssParameter>
</sld:Fill>
<sld:Stroke>
<sld:CssParameter name="stroke">#CBCCCC</sld:CssParameter>
</sld:Stroke>
</sld:PolygonSymbolizer>
</sld:Rule>
</sld:FeatureTypeStyle>
</sld:UserStyle>
</sld:NamedLayer>
</sld:StyledLayerDescriptor>
I have tested this using GeoServer 2.1 (all RC and final release).
How can I add the SLD by using the GeoServer REST Configuration with my declared encoding and not "UTF-8"?
