Hi Jesse,
thank you for your answer and ideas.
I have found one kind of solution to patch the transcoder wrap class:
src\xercesc\util\Transcoders\ICU\ICUTransService.cpp
adding there to constructor of ICUTranscoder::ICUTranscoder these lines:
UErrorCode uerr = U_ZERO_ERROR;
ucnv_setSubstChars(toAdopt, "?", 1, &uerr);
...
Than, the "?" character is used as replacement char, when using icu.
This is ICU specific solutions and is not clear, because there is necessary to
rebuild xerces lib. I would like to see some possible switch around
XMLFormatter class, but there is unknown UConverter form ICU which will be used
next, because there is nothing to know which transcoder will be called later.
Please create a Jira issue because this is a bug. We should not let the
ICU use a replacement character that we know will result in a document
that's not well-formed.
