Thanks for the quick reply,
I searched the archive and came up with this:
const XMLCh* text = MY_HEBREW_TEXT; // initialized by the parser
XMLTranscoder* utf8Transcoder;
XMLTransService::Codes failReason;
utf8Transcoder =
XMLPlatformUtils::fgTransService->makeNewTranscoderFor("UTF-8", failReason,
16*1024);
int len = XMLString::stringLen(text);
XMLByte* utf8 = new XMLByte(); // ?
unsigned int eaten;
unsigned int utf8Len = utf8Transcoder->transcodeTo(text, len, utf8, len,
eacten, XMLTranscoder::UnRep_Throw);
utf8[utf8Len] = '\0';
string str = (char*)utf8;
return str;
It looks like it works, but problem is that i'm getting a serious memory
leak from this code, and i don't really know why.
i tried to delete the XMLByte*, but when i try to do that, i get a nasty
exception..
Is the code i wrote here is supposed to work? and how can i release the
memory allocated by this code?
Thanks again.
