Hi, I am generating a xml document using
Document document = DocumentHelper.createDocument(); Element root = document.addElement( "root" ); Element author1 = root.addElement( "author" ) .addText( strData ); ... I do not have control over what is in the data, so there could be < or > etc. in it. What is the best practice to handle this? There used to be a DocumentHelper.encodeString(), but that seems to be gone? I assume that dom4j is not doing any escaping/encoding by default!? What if there are illegal characters (control characters like 0x7) in the data? Is a binary encoding (e.g. base64) the only way to go?
