Xerces in infinite loop validating wrongly encoded XML 1.1 documents
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: XERCESJ-1094
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESJ-1094
Project: Xerces2-J
Type: Bug
Versions: 2.7.1
Environment: Linux, Solaris, jdk 1.2.2/1.4/1.5
Reporter: Yves Lafon
Priority: Blocker
When parsing a XML1.1 document from an InputSource, where the encoding is set
to iso-8859-1, with an encoding set to UTF-8 in the XML declaration, and with a
iso-8859-2 character in an attribute, then xerces enters an infinite loop.
If the same character is not in the attribute, then Xerces reports an invalid
XML character instead of blocking.
If the encoding of the input source is not set to iso-8859-1, Xerces works fine
also.
