RequestParameter encoded string

Question

I have a controller with a RequestParam as a String, which is BASE64 encoded, and it includes many times the "+" character (something like "domain.com/request?code=sdfesdfd+23fewrfr3"). When I try to print the 'code' value whitin the controller method body, it prints the value replacing the "+" for a space " " (in the example, "sdfesdfd 23fewrfr3"). How can I avoid having this problem?

Run the string through the URLEncoder if you can...

http://docs.oracle.com/javase/1.5.0/docs/api/java/net/URLEncoder.html

... if you can't do that, try using percent encoding....
