Status: Verified
SYMPTOM(s):
The SAX parser does not read in a UTF-8 XML file correctly
Extended characters in a UTF-8 XML file are not read correctly by the SAX parser
After importing French accented characters from a UTF-8 XML file the characters do not display correctly
FACT(s) (Environment):
Progress 9.x
OpenEdge 10.x
All Supported Operating Systems
OpenEdge Category: I18N
CAUSE:
The XML file was not created correctly. The accented characters are not in the UTF-8 code page. So although the XML file header says the file is UTF-8 the accented characters are not. It is likely that these were added later manually with cut and paste.
FIX:
The only real solution to the problem is to ensure that the process that created the XML file really does create all its data using the UTF-8 code page.
