Change default XML encoding

Hello,

I am using BaseX to scan XML files, and most files are using implicitely the ISO-8859-15 encoding. Unfortunately, it seems that the internal XML parser is using by default UTF-8 encoding. This doesn't seem to be specified in the configuration files, or GUI properties.

Is there a way to force the internal parser to use another encoding?

Many thanks,

Guillaume

Dear Guillaume,

if a document contains no XML declaration, the XML specification assumes UTF8 as default encoding, which is why is documents with another encoding will be declared as non-wellformed. As there is no possibility of overriding this default, you'll have to convert your documents in advance, or add an appropriate XML declaration.

Sorry for that, Christian
