Problem understanding characters() callback in SAX2 parser

[Benoît Desmeules]

I don't fully know the internals of Xerces so maybe my problem is caused by 
a misunderstanding. Although, I'd need some advice about something.

I'm using SAX2 to parse an XML file and retrieve its content. It's been 
running fine for a while until someone used < and > codes in the XML 
file. When there are such codes in an XML tag, the 
DefaultHandler::characters() callback gets called a few times (each time it 
encounters a < or > code).

For example, if I had <foo>bar is &lt; than bla</foo> in my XML file, my 
characters gets called twice :
first time with "bar is " and the second time with "< than bla".

Is there a way to only get one call to characters or do I have to 
concatenate the contents?

Thanks in advance for the response.

         Ben
