[jibx-users] Bug in UTF8StreamWriter.writeTextContent(String text) ?

[Stefano Nichele]

Hi All,
i think that i found a bug in UTF8StreamWriter.writeTextContent(String
text).
In this method the entity &, < are replaced by their escape sequence.
Moreover if:

else if (chr == '>' && i > 2 && text.charAt(i-1) == ']' &&
               text.charAt(i-2) == ']') {
               m_buffer[fill++] = (byte)']';
               m_buffer[fill++] = (byte)']';
               fill = writeEntity(GT_ENTITY, fill);
}

the > is replaced with &gt;.
The code above means:
if the current char is > and the previous chars are ]] ....escape the >.

Well, i have a java class that contains a text with:
this is my <![CDATA[text]]> with some problem

My expected xml is:

<Data>this is my <![CDATA[text]]> with some problem</Data>

but the result is:
<Data>this is my &lt;![CDATA[text]]]]&gt; with some problem</Data>

So the ]] are now ]]]]. I think this is caused because my text doesn't
start with CDATA so it is handled as simple text.


I fixed it removing:

               m_buffer[fill++] = (byte)']';
               m_buffer[fill++] = (byte)']';


What do you thing about that ?

Thanks a lot
Stefano
