Hi there,
I'm using xml-smart just for reading xml-files. We get The xml-file from our customer to update his user data in our db.
I know that the xml is not really good xml but i can't handle that. I have to use the file as it is delivered to us.
We get the files in different charsets. (utf-8, windows-1252) Sometimes with leading xml tag
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='Windows-1252'?> and sometimes without. But as i mentioned, I can't influence that.
Now I have a problem that a customer sends data with an umlaut. For example an ä. In the xml file it is hex coded as C3 A4 (In Ascii ä)
After the xml::smart has parsed the file not all of those codings (assorted) are corectly transmitted. And here i think it is could be a bug.
I'm using this code to parse the xml-file: my $config = XML::Smart->new($importfile, 'XML::Smart::Parser') ;
I have to use the XML::Smart::Parser because the others ignore the newlines.
If you need more information please contact me.
Schöne Grüße aus Mönchengladbach
