Wing Yew Poon commented on XMLBEANS-281:
----------------------------------------
PrettyPrinter basically parses each xml file you give it into an XmlObject and
calls save() on the XmlObject with a pretty print option.
My comment about the character escaping applies to XmlObject save() and
xmlText() generally, with or without the pretty print.
As for your observation that pretty printing changes the content of the xml,
that is precisely the intent. Pretty printing may add or remove whitespace in
the xml content.
E.g., if you pretty printed
<Property name="Test">
<Value>less than is < greater than is >
</Value>
</Property>
you get
<Property name="Test">
<Value>less than is < greater than is ></Value>
</Property>
That is definitely not equivalent as xml to the original.
However,
<Property name="Test">
<Value>less than is < greater than is >
</Value>
</Property>
is equivalent to the original.
