Question

I’m generating a XML based on string like this:

DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();

DocumentBuilder builder;
try {
    builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();

    // Use String reader  
    Document document = builder.parse(new InputSource(new StringReader(txt)));

    TransformerFactory tranFactory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
    Transformer aTransformer = tranFactory.newTransformer();
    Source src = new DOMSource(document);
    Result dest = new StreamResult(new File("C:\\Users\\root\\Desktop\\xmlFileName.xml"));
    aTransformer.transform(src, dest);
} catch (Exception e) {
    // TODO Auto-generated catch block  
    e.printStackTrace();
}

It generates the file but I’m having a problem with characters.

For instance, this line of the generated XML:

<msg_detalhe>NÃ&#131;£o Ã&#131;© permitida a presenÃ&#131;§a de caracteres</msg_detalhe>

Should be:

<msg_detalhe>Não é permitida a presença de caracteres</msg_detalhe>

Answer 1

in XML content use CDATA…

<![CDATA[content]]>
