Benson Margulies commented on CXF-1289:
---------------------------------------
First, I realize that I lumped two disparate phenomena. 0x1b is not a valid XML
1.0 character at all. To send it around, you need XML 1.1 (supported by nearly
nothing) or to use base64. It would be reasonable to open a JIRA asking for CXF
to diagnose it. Since CXF depends on other toolkits to serialize to XML, and
since perfomance is a big issue, we would probably stick to inviting you to
implement an interceptor object to to diagnose these.
Escaping it, however, doesn't make any difference in it's legitimacy. The XML
1.0 standard is quite clear. Unicode characters excluded from the Char
production are not permitted. Representing them as entities doesn't change them
or make them valid.
0x27, on the other hand, is just a character, and any standard-conforming XML
parser has to accept it as-is in pc-data. If Firefox does not, I'd like to see
the implementor's justification as a reference to a standard.
Your report doesn't tell me enough to understand what Firefox has to do with
all of this. I certainly suffer from many firefox defects every day, so I'm
afraid that I can't assent to the statement that 'Firefox is absolutely not
defective.' It may be defective in this particular aspect, or it may not be.
However, you haven't supplied much information.
What, precisely, are you doing? Exactly how are you talking to CXF with
Firefox? What goes wrong?
