Output of XMLString::transcode not freed?
-----------------------------------------

                 Key: XERCESC-1767
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESC-1767
             Project: Xerces-C++
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Documentation
         Environment: The Xerces-C++ webpage
            Reporter: Mateusz CzapliƄski
            Priority: Trivial


In the example code snippet at
  http://xerces.apache.org/xerces-c/program-sax.html
there's a fragment as follows:

void MySAXHandler::fatalError(const SAXParseException& exception)
{
    char* message = XMLString::transcode(exception.getMessage());
    cout << "Fatal Error: " << message
         << " at line: " << exception.getLineNumber()
         << endl;
}

This seems to contradict the claim in XMLString.hpp that the caller of 
XMLString::transcode() is responsible for freeing the memory.

If there's some reason why this is OK there, it should be clearly stated. 
Especially as this is a basic hello-world-like example lots of people will 
presumably start with - and now it might be understood as "Oh, that's not 
really so important to free this memory, you know."
