Andreas Veithen updated SYNAPSE-215:
------------------------------------
Attachment: TEST-org.apache.synapse.mediators.transform.XSLTMediatorTest.xml
text-enc-test-patch.txt
Attached a patch that adds a test case to XSLTMediatorTest providing evidence
for this issue. Also attached the test report.
> XSLTMediator doesn't handle text output correctly
> -------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SYNAPSE-215
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SYNAPSE-215
> Project: Synapse
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Core
> Affects Versions: NIGHTLY
> Environment: Mac OS X
> Reporter: Andreas Veithen
> Attachments:
> TEST-org.apache.synapse.mediators.transform.XSLTMediatorTest.xml,
> text-enc-test-patch.txt

>
> When the output of the XSL transformation is text rather than XML,
> XLSTMediator uses ByteArrayOutputStream#toString to retrieve the generated
> content. According to the Javadoc, toString transforms "bytes into characters
> according to the platform's default character encoding". However, nothing
> guarantees that the XSLT processor uses the same encoding when writing to the
> ByteArrayOutputStream. Indeed, on my Mac OS X environment, the default
> platform encoding is MacRoman, while Xalan chooses UTF-8 as output encoding.
> This causes all non ASCII characters to be corrupted.
> Also, XLSTMediator always tries to parse the output as XML and only falls
> back to text when an error occurs. This strategy is not optimal and could
> lead to unexpected results. XSLTMediator should switch between XML and text
> output by determining the output method specified in the stylesheet. It
> should be possible to achieve this by using Transformer#getOutputProperty.
