[jira] [Commented] (VYSPER-4) Handle non UTF-8 encoded streams

["Joonas Koivunen (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VYSPER-4?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13455714#comment-13455714 ] 

Joonas Koivunen commented on VYSPER-4:
--------------------------------------

This is rather old issue, and apparently it has remained dormant as XMPP only allows UTF8. However vysper's "nbxml" project is usable far beyond vysper itself, and I'd like to move in and provide this functionality (most likely as a optional "feature" of the parser, so that vysper code does not need modification). Basically I'd like to look into supporting ISO-8859-1 through <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?> PIs. If there are no objections I'll be posting a patch hopefully soon.

I haven't read the latest sources (currently git svn cloning the vysper repo, will be mirroring it at least a bit to github) but as I understood, PI's are currently ignored by the xml tokenizer, and thus are unhandled completly. So, I'll be looking at the tokenizer first.

> currently, UTF-8 encoding is hardcoded in stream parser, regardless what the initiating party is providing
