Hi Enzo,

while if I use the function dom_wr->writeToString ( see belowe ) I get an
empty string

   chXml     = dom_wr->writeToString( *pDoc );
   delete dom_wr;
   delete errHandlerDomWriter;

   sXml = XMLString::transcode( chXml );
   sres = string( sXml );
   XMLString::release( &sXml );

sres is EMPTY

The result of writeToString is a Unicode string; 
XMLString::transcode tries to convert that 
Unicode string into the local code page of your 
Linux box. I guess your current local code page 
is unable to represent the Unicode character 0xA5 
(the yen symbol). If you really want to display 
that Unicode string on your terminal, you should 
change your code page to be latin-1 or its equivalents (e.g. ISO-8859-1)

Oggetto: using non standard character with zerces



I' m using a code like the one show belowe to build a DOM document.

       DOMElement * pTestRef;
       string stmp;
       stmp = string( "this is a test: <> & &#165; " );
       pTestRef = pDoc->createElement( X("TEST_REFERENCE_1") );
       dtxt                  = pDoc->createTextNode( X( stmp.c_str()));
       pRoot->appendChild( pTestRef );
       pTestRef->appendChild( dtxt );

The output I get is show belowe, where entities >,> and & a re corretly
translated.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-16" standalone="no" ?>
<Messaggio>
......
<TEST_REFERENCE_1>this is a test: &lt;&gt; &amp; &amp;#165;
</TEST_REFERENCE_1>
</Messaggio>

What I can't do is to pass other entities in hex or decimal notation like
&#165 for the euro character, because the first & which is part of the whole
enitiy is translated separately.
How is possible to tell to DOMWriter to leave as is ( without translate teh
& char ) entities composed by more characters ( like &#xA5;  , &#165; or
&lt; )

Enzo Arlati
