I am currently having trouble with German umlaut values in a XML document I received.
It displays / saves the value as a “ü” instead of a “ü“.
The XML Encoding is set to UTF-8 which should be capable of displaying umlauts.
Also I couldn’t find any option to set a locale on the SAX parser.
Is there any other way I can make the values save correctly?
btw: I am using eclipse as IDE.
All help is very appreciated!
Thanks in advance!
The XML is encoded in UTF-8, but you are decoding it with ISO-8859-1.
Try to use
InputStreamand other “binary”-oriented APIs for XML. Avoid using aReader, or trying to convert frombyte[]to aStringbefore parsing XML. You are much more likely to mess up the character encoding than the parser is.
