Henri Yandell resolved LANG-260:
--------------------------------

    Resolution: Fixed

svn ci -m "Exposing the unescapeXml and escapeXml methods that take Writers - 
LANG-260. A recent thread 
did point out that there are problems with the concept of escaping Xml as a 
single method, and instead it needs to be an xml parser that escapes the body an
d the attribute content differently - however we're obviously not there yet and 
I don't think making the existing 80/20 good enough code more usable hurts.

> StringEscapeUtils should expose escape*() methods taking Writer argument
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------

>          Key: LANG-260
>          URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-260

>         Type: Improvement

>  Environment: N/A
>     Reporter: Norbert Reilly
>      Fix For: 2.2

>
> StringEscapeUtils.escapeXML(String) is the only exposed variant, but the 
> package private Entities.XML class it uses under the covers has a variant 
> taking a Writer. The StringEscapeUtils.escapeXML(Writer, String) variant 
> would be much more efficient when incrementally escaping values and adding 
> them one-by-one and could seemingly be exposed with very little effort. Ditto 
> for the unescapeXML() case, and presumably other styles of escape/unescape 
> (like HTML) that use the Entities class under the covers.
