Hello World, hello Daniel,

I'm creating a XML document using

xmlProg = xmlNewDoc("1.0");

Then I add nodes and subnodes, finally I'll dump the complete document to a 
buffer:

xmlDocDumpMemory(xmlProg, &xmlStr, &xmlStrLen, "UTF-8");


My problem: I have node values containing umlauts (for example: "Früchte"). 
Although I specify "UTF-8" as encoding and altough I use 
xmlEncodeSpecialChars(xmlProg, "Früchte"), at the time I use it, the encoding 
is not yet specified and if I write the buffer to a file, the BOM is written, 
but the actual encoding is cp1252 (I'm woring on windows). And if I try to read 
the document again, libxml2 complains that the document is not UTF-8, which is 
correct (the "ü" in "Früchte" has a value with bit 8 set)

I know that the internal encoding is UTF-8, but how do I tell that my XML 
document and how do I have to convert the characters/strings to make it correct?

Used library: libxml2 2.6.27

Best Regards
        Andreas
