escaping does not work properly 2003-07-09 - By Rajic Zeljko
Hi,
I'm currently experiencing a strange behaviour when using Xerces to serialize a
XML document: for some reason the ">" character does not get escaped to ">"
when adding it as attribute or element value.
To demonstrate what I mean I've attached a small Java Application. When running
it, I receive the following output:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<testcase name="testcasename" time="19:00:12">
<error type="This is the testcase description: a tag <descriptiontag> !!"
>This is the error text with the <errortag> !!</error>
</testcase>
Instead I'd expect to receive the following:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<testcase name="testcasename" time="19:00:12">
<error type="This is the testcase description: a tag <descriptiontag%gt;
!!"
>This is the error text with the <errortag> !!</error>
</testcase>
I've tried the application with a older version of Xerces, but also with the
current 2.4.0. Both with the same result.
As I can't imagine to be the first to see this behaviour I guess that I must
doing something wrong. So it would be nice if someone could point me to my
mistake.
And by the way: is it possible to escape more characters than only "<>&' with
Xerces or SAX in common? For example also escaping the [] characters?
Regards,
Zeljko
