I have a confusing (to me )problem that I hope has an easy solution. It
seems to stem from users entering non-standard characters into my app by
copy/pasting from Microsoft Word. These characters include the open quote
and close quote symbols, as well as 1/2 and other weird characters.
So, my users are able to paste Strings containing those characters into
JTextArea's. Java String properties can successfully store the characters,
and castor can marshal them to XML files. However, when I try to unmarshal,
using the same mapping, objects and everything, I get this exception:
java.io.UTFDataFormatException: Invalid byte 1 of 1-byte UTF sequence
Every time I try to unmarshall a file which has one of these funky
characters in it. So, my question is, why is Castor able to marshal, but not
unmarshal these characters? Is there a way to filter the unwanted characters
out before marshalling? Or is there a way to unmarshall the strange
characters successfully? Do I change from UTF-8 to something else?
I'm pretty confused, but I really need to find a solution to this. If anyone
has any ideas, I'd sure appreciate it.
