Problem with acute accent unicode Latin character
-------------------------------------------------

         Key: XERCESC-1570
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESC-1570
     Project: Xerces-C++
        Type: Bug
  Components: Miscellaneous  
    Versions: 2.7.0    
 Environment: uname -a: Linux aries 2.6.15.4-Abysal #1 SMP Wed Feb 22 17:28:51 
CET 2006 i686 GNU/Linux
    Reporter: jose
    Priority: Minor


The small example program below demonstrates the problem:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#include <stdio.h>
#include <locale.h>
#include <xercesc/util/PlatformUtils.hpp>
#include <xercesc/util/XMLString.hpp>
#include <xercesc/dom/DOM.hpp>
#include <xercesc/framework/MemBufInputSource.hpp>
#include <xercesc/parsers/XercesDOMParser.hpp>
#include <xercesc/framework/StdOutFormatTarget.hpp>

const XMLCh pCore[] = { 'C', 'o', 'r', 'e', '\0' };
const XMLCh pRoot[] = { 'r', 'o', 'o', 't', '\0' };
const XMLCh pVers[] = { '1', '.', '0', '\0' };
const XMLCh pEnc [] = { 'I', 'S', 'O', '-', '8', '8', '5', '9', '-', '1', '\0' 
};
const XMLCh pLS  [] = { 'L', 'S', '\0' };
const XMLCh pLF  [] = { '\n', '\0' };

using namespace xercesc;

void printf_xml( const DOMDocument *doc )
{
   DOMImplementation *irl = DOMImplementationRegistry::getDOMImplementation( 
pLS );
   DOMWriter *theSerializer = ((DOMImplementationLS *)irl)->createDOMWriter();
   theSerializer->setEncoding( pEnc );
   XMLFormatTarget *xmlft = new StdOutFormatTarget();
   theSerializer->writeNode( xmlft, *doc );
   delete xmlft;
   delete theSerializer;
}

int main( int argc, char *argv[] )
{
   XMLPlatformUtils::Initialize( "es_ES" );
   {
      setlocale( LC_ALL, "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" );
      //setlocale( LC_ALL, "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" ); // the same problem

      DOMImplementation *irc = DOMImplementationRegistry::getDOMImplementation( 
pCore );

      DOMDocument *doc = irc->createDocument( 0, 0, 0 );

      doc->setVersion( pVers );
      doc->setEncoding( pEnc );

      DOMElement *de = doc->createElement( pRoot );

      static XMLCh *pValue = XMLString::transcode( "1.234´56" );
      DOMText *dt = doc->createTextNode( pValue );
      XMLString::release( &pValue );

      de->appendChild( dt );

      doc->appendChild( de );

      printf_xml( doc );

      doc->release();

   }
   XMLPlatformUtils::Terminate();
   return 0;
}
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Keep close attention to the XMLString::transcode() call.
The value "1.234´56" is passed using the "ACUTE ACCENT" between characters '4' 
and '5'.
When the program is run, the result is as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" standalone="no" 
?><root>1.234&#x17D;56</root>
Why does the unicode character &#x17D; appear instead of &#180;?
Character &#x17D; corresponds to "LATIN CAPITAL LETTER Z WITH CARON"
and not to "ACUTE ACCENT" that must be &#180; on unicode.
