Re: cvs commit: xml-fop/src/documentation/content/xdocs/design/alt.design classes-overview.xml

Posted by Jeremias Maerki <de...@greenmail.ch>.
You may have seen my CVS commit yesterday evening. I changed my name in
the author tag of fonts.xml. It now contains the proper UTF-8 encoding
of an a-umlaut (ä). I had no error messages from Forrest and the HTML
result looked correct.

  -      <person name="Jeremias Maerki" email=""/>
  +      <person name="Jeremias Märki" email=""/>

Thinking about it, the "ü" when literally embedded in a UTF-8 encoded
document should throw an error IMO. If I think about the implications of
having to use character references for text written in chinese, for
example....

Could you leave the character as it is for the moment, just in case
there is still some problem.

By all means update the document encoding.

Keiron,

I will be updating this documentation in the next few days, and I will 
fix the encoding at the same time, unless there is a more urgent need.

xmllint doesn't like ü either:

classes-overview.xml:30: error: Input is not proper UTF-8, indicate encoding !
    über-class to accommodate everything that applies to


Declaring the encoding properly makes it valid XML:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1" standalone="no"?>


Ant had a bug where (I gather) docs were forcibly processed as UTF-8:

http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=11279

As of yesterday, Forrest uses an Ant with that bug fixed.

I kept getting errors with validation and conversion with cocoon.
The error message where usually something like: unkown error.
I don't know what is causing the problem.

At least this works with forrest now.

A normal character would be preferrable if the problems can be solved.

Keiron,

is that really necessary? If proper UTF-8 encoding would be used (as
declared implicitly), these cryptic character references would not be
necessary, right?
