Hello,
An ampersand (&) character when found in the command line arguments of
an application,
is not encoded into an xml safe form (&) when xml output is enabled.
The same characters are encoded properly in the "args" section,
but appear as-is in the "preample" section.
Please refer to the xml snippet below for an example.
This causes a parse failure with standard xml parsers.
Thanks,
Madhan.
