[issue3075] make minidom.toxml() encoding argument useful

Mark Lawrence breamore...@yahoo.co.uk added the comment:

This is how toprettyxml looks in 3.1/2 which seems to meet the OP's need, I'll 
close in a few days time unless someone objects.

def toprettyxml(self, indent=\t, newl=\n, encoding=None):
# indent = the indentation string to prepend, per level
# newl = the newline string to append
use_encoding = utf-8 if encoding is None else encoding
writer = codecs.getwriter(use_encoding)(io.BytesIO())
if self.nodeType == Node.DOCUMENT_NODE:
# Can pass encoding only to document, to put it into XML header
self.writexml(writer, , indent, newl, encoding)
else:
self.writexml(writer, , indent, newl)
if encoding is None:
return writer.stream.getvalue().decode(use_encoding)
else:
return writer.stream.getvalue()

[issue3075] make minidom.toxml() encoding argument useful

[Bill Janssen]

New submission from Bill Janssen [EMAIL PROTECTED]:

Right now, the encoding argument added to
xml.dom.minidom.DOMObject.toxml() in Python 2.3 seems fairly useless. 
It has to be UTF-8.  But a one-line change to the implementation of
toprettyxml would make it useful; instead of the encoding error method
being strict, make it xmlcharrefreplace.  So change

writer = codecs.lookup(encoding)[3](writer)

to

writer = codecs.lookup(encoding)[3](writer, xmlcharrefreplace)

The method toxml is actually on xml.dom.minidom.Node.
