Hi. I really like xerces. But I have just become aware of a big issue I have with it. It supports a lot of encodings.. but it supports none of the IANA alias for them.
Was this done on purpose, if so what purpose? Is there any way we could add support for these aliases? I would be overjoyed with latin1 support, in Xerces 1.3 for example. Xerces of course supports "ISO-8859-1", but it does not support "latin1". They are the same encoding, but IANA has "latin1" defined as a valid alias for it, xerces of course throws an Unsupported Encoding Exception.. sad. A list of iana encodings are at: http://www.isi.edu/in-notes/iana/assignments/character-sets just getting the ball rolling.. fernando
