> Key: XALANJ-2529
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XALANJ-2529
> Project: XalanJ2
> Issue Type: Bug
> Security Level: No security risk; visible to anyone(Ordinary problems in
> Xalan projects. Anybody can view the issue.)
> Components: Serialization
> Environment: Linux 2.6.5-7.151-s390x (SuSE mainframe) and 2.6.23.9lw
> #105 SMP (Red Hat derived Intel)
> Reporter: David Collier-Brown
>
> I send a file containing the line
> --
> character="✓" name="check;"
> --
> to Xerces, and wrote it to the following xsl program:
> ---
> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
> <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
> version="2.0">
> <xsl:output
> use-character-maps="cm1" />
> <xsl:character-map name="cm1">
> <xsl:output-character character="✓" string="&check;"/>
> </xsl:character-map>
> </xsl:stylesheet>
> --
> The output, alas, is
> --
> character="✓" name="check;"
> --
> where "✓" is literally a checkmark character. Piping it through
> cat -A yeilds
> --
> character="M-bM-^\M-^S" name="check;"$
> --
> I expected a literal ampersand followed by "check;", but instead got a
> literal checkmark on both mainframe and intel linux.
> The code example is from www.xml.com/lpt/a/1426, and has arguably
> worked for the author, but but several other commentartors suggest it
> doesn't work, as found via the google search "xsl character-map doesn't work"
> This is puzzling, and disqualifies me from using Xerces, and even DOm in
> in general for my customer.
> Is there a general problem with character maps, or ones specific to
> particular implementations?
