Wing Yew Poon commented on XMLBEANS-281:
----------------------------------------

This is not a bug.
The XML spec only requires that '<' and '&'  (and '>' when it is part of the sequence "]]>" AND does not mark the end of a CDATA section) be escaped in character data.
As character data, "&gt;" and ">" are the same.
If you want to control how the '>' is output, you can use XmlOptions.setSaveSubstituteCharacters(XmlOptionCharEscapeMap).

>     <Value>less than is &lt; greaterthan is &gt;</Value>
