I have a problem with entities and wonder how to fix it :
My python program using libxml2 python binding ( 2.7.3 ) to create a xml
document.
I create an windows binary executable using py2exe.
For some nodes the content contains german umlauts.
Depending on which PC I ran the program the resulting xml
either contains the umlaut characters or an strange entity text !?
Here is my code to fill text into a node :
A xmlDoc instance created using
theDoc = libxml2.newDoc("1.0")
text is unicode data.
theNode = libxml2.newNode("MyNode")
theNode.addChild( libxml2.newText( theDoc.encodeEntitiesReentrant(
text.encode("utf-8") ) ) )
To save the document to a file I do
theDoc.saveFileEnc( path_to_the_file, "utf-8" )
The resulting document contains depending on which PC the program ran :
<MyNode>Some Text &#xF6;&#xE4;&#xFC;</MyNode>
or
<MyNode>Some Text öäü</MyNode>
