Automatically escape cyrillic characters

[Benjamin Muschko]

Hi,

I'm using Castor and want to automatically get escaped cyrillic characters when marshalling my bean (e.g. Д). I'm using a StringWriter as input for the marshaller. The resulting XML includes escaped sequences for > and < but not for the cyrillic characters. As workaround I tried to escape the characters myself and use them as bean field values. However, this will result in an escaped & plus the #1044; which I don't want.

Either I need to disable escaping (for escaping the characters myself) or I need to find a way to let Castor do the work. Does anybody have any ideas on this?

Thanks,

Ben

Hi Ben,

in order to be able to answer your question and/or address your problem
in an adequate manner, I'n need a small test case to be able to replay
the problem (and look at some things in particular).

Can you please add a new Jira issue at

http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/CASTOR

and attach all relevant files.

Regards
Werner

There doesn't seem to have been any progress on this issue.  Has anyone found a work around?

I'm trying to escape a string like "£10 per hour".  As Xerces doesn't escape the pound sign, I am doing it myself before passing into Castor for marshalling.  For example, I start with a string containing "&#163;10 per hour".  But after marshalling, Castor escapes the ampersand to produce "&amp;#163;10 per hour".  The encoding the ampersand is unnecessary as far as I know "&#163;" is valid for inclusion in XML.

Example strings are formatted to look OK on a web page.  Here are unescaped versions if it helps readability in text emails etc.:
Starting with - "£10 per hour"
Escaping to - "£10 per hour"
After marshalling left with - "&#163;10 per hour"

Regards,
Lee

Hi Lee,

sorry, this cannot be dealt with through Castor. You could, though,
always come up with your own Serializer extension(s)/customization(s).
