Hi all,
I'm trying to parse a document with encoding 'ibm-37', using the ICU
transcoder. The ICU data dll I use does have an entry for ibm-37, but the
code in TransService.cpp is never letting it get that far. It seems that
TransService has a list of encodings that it deliberately disallows:
// gDisallow1
// gDisallowX
// These area small set of encoding names that, for temporary reasons,
// we disallow at this time.
//
// gDisallowList
// gDisallowListSize
// An array of the disallow strings, for easier searching below.
//
Is there anything to stop me commenting out the code which implements this
check? Should I raise a bug report so that the code is chopped out of the
next Xerces release?
Here's the code which checks the list, from
XmlTransService::makeNewTranscoderFor()
//
// For now, we have a little list of encodings that we disallow
// explicitly. So lets check for them up front. They all start with
// IBM, so we can do a quick check to see if we should even do
// anything at all.
//
if (XMLString::startsWith(upBuf, gDisallowPre))
{
for (unsigned int index = 0; index < gDisallowListSize; index++)
{
// If its one of our guys, then pretend we don't understand it
if (!XMLString::compareString(upBuf, gDisallowList[index]))
return 0;
}
}
Does anyone recall why the encodings were disallowed?
Thanks in advance,
Matt Lovett
