It's not that way. Actually I don't want to create XML stream containing binary data, but write _only_ raw binary data, (ab)using the xmlTextWriter API. The program I'm writing was supposed to only return data in XML, but there is a need now to return binaries in some cases. xmlTextWriter is still the only interface to the world, so I'm trying to push those BLOBs through it. But maybe you're right and UUEncoding could be used instead. -- Cheers, Piotr Gaczkowski _______________________________________________ xml mailing list, project page http://xmlsoft.org/ [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/xml
