Oxygen XML Forum

I'm running DBXML of berkley.
I need to us < > and other XML foreign characters in my XML structure
W3c standards tell me to ue < an > as encoding.
This is fine for me ...
As I load the xml record in the DB
as : <test var="<>" />
the xml record is returned as <test vat="<>" />
it seems to interprete the &gt opposed to the &lt
as a result the XML string is corrupted.



Any idea to solve the problem

Hello,

Please specify a sequence of steps that you execute including the parameters for the import from database action to get the corrupt string.

Hello,

The two representations of the > character in XML are equivalent, so what you get back is equivalent with what you had initially. If you want to have this consistent then do not escape the > character, just write it as it is. Things are different with the < character, it always need to be escaped.

I found out what went wrong using


as a document can be converted to text in multiple ways....
Document.toString fails to convert the ">" badly and messes up the XML standard Doc.AsString fails
Doc.getContent seems to work



Best regards thanks anyway
