[jira] [Commented] (GROOVY-7571) XmlUtil should allow user to specify a character encoding when serializing

["Paul King (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-7571?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=14902303#comment-14902303 ] 

Paul King commented on GROOVY-7571:
-----------------------------------

This involves setting:
{code}
transformer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.ENCODING, encoding)
{code}
within {{XmlUtil#serialize(Source source, StreamResult target)}}.

The tricky thing is then working out whether all 18 or so {{serialize}} methods in that class need to be duplicated with the extra param or whether there is a better way to handle that? They are all static methods currently which limits our options.

> At the moment groovy.xml.XmlUtil#serialize always creates UTF-8 encoded XML, it would be nice if the user could define the encoding used.
