Question

When using GDataXML* to build an XML document, how do I set the doctype of the generated XML? The rough outline of how I’m using GData can be found here:

We ended up doing it this way, which is not ideal but does the trick:

NSMutableString* contentString = [[[NSMutableString alloc] init] autorelease];
[contentString setString:   @"<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?>"];
[contentString appendString:@"<!DOCTYPE somedoc SYSTEM \"http://x.y.com/some.dtd\">"];
[contentString appendString:@"<somedoc></somedoc>"];

GDataXMLDocument *document = [[[GDataXMLDocument alloc] initWithXMLString:contentString options:0 error:nil] autorelease];
