#2971 closed defect (fixed)

Test if output of XML based OGR drivers is valid UTF-8

Reported by: Even Rouault Owned by: Even Rouault

Component: OGR_SF Version: unspecified

Description

This ticket tracks a simple way of ensuring that XML based OGR drivers will produce valid UTF-8 XML files.

Two new functions will be added in the CPL recode API : CPLIsUTF8() and CPLForceToASCII().

They will be used by a OGRGetXML_UTF8_EscapedString() function (in ogr/ogr_utils.cpp) that will take care of forcing to ASCII if necessary and XML escaping the result. This will be used by the CreateFeature() of GML, KML, GPX and GeoRSS drivers.
