xmlCreatePushParserCtxt() doesn't have an encoding option, but calling xmlCtxtResetPush() after its creation with the parameters might help. Note that you really should try to pass all parameters an not NULLs/0, things like the filename which sets the base URI are important for further processing of URI references. And please don't push one byte at a time, after that people may claim that libxml2 is a poor performer ! > I also saw at: > http://xmlsoft.org/encoding.html#extend > you mention it might be possible to make libxml use all utf-16 > internally. Do you know if anyone has tried? Not possible, that was written like 5 years ago. Won't work without massive changes diverting from the normal code base, I'm removing that paragraph. In general UTF-16 is a really bad choice, it makes data larger in most cases, killing caches performances, and you don't even have the nice property of a constant byte per character ratio.
