DOMWriter::writeToString ignores encoding

           Summary: DOMWriter::writeToString ignores encoding
           Product: Xerces-C++
           Version: 2.3.0
          Platform: Macintosh
               URL: http://http://
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: DOM
        AssignedTo: xerces-c-dev@xml.apache.org
        ReportedBy: jason@openinformatics.com


using writeToSting() will automatically set the encoding of the document to
UTF-16 regardless of the encoding value set in the writer, or if writing a
DOMDocument, the encoding of the document.

Why is this?

Here is the code repsonsible

XMLCh* DOMWriterImpl::writeToString(const DOMNode &nodeToWrite)
{
    MemBufFormatTarget  destination(1023, fMemoryManager);
    bool retVal;

    // XMLCh is unicode, assume fEncoding as UTF-16
    XMLCh* tempEncoding = fEncoding;
    fEncoding = (XMLCh*) XMLUni::fgUTF16EncodingString;
