title: Change Tomcat's Charset.defaultCharset in windows
body: <p>I'm using tomcat 6.0.32 in windows 7.
  Inside a very simple servlet, inside the init method, I'm printing:</p>
  
  <pre><code>System.out.println(Charset.defaultCharset());
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The output is:</p>
  
  <pre><code>windows-1253
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>As far as I understand this is how tomcat start's in the JVM since I'm printing the same in standalone java class and I get "UTF8" as a response. </p>
  
  <p>So, how can I change this to UTF-8?</p>
  
  <p>thanks</p>
