Re: CRLF in <string> -- XML vs XML-RPC

If it is of interest this is how I handle encoding the the Groovy  
implementation:

Characters with values less than 0X20 but not equal to  0X09  0X0A or  
0X0D cause an exception to be thrown and no data is sent

Characters with values greater than 0XD800 and not greater than or  
equals to  0XE000 and less than 0XFFFE cause an exception to be  
thrown and no data is sent

The characters '<", ">" and '&' are encoded as &lt;, &gt; and &amp;

Other characters with value less than or equal to 0XFF get sent "as  
is" (including 0X09  0X0A and 0X0D)

All others get represented as &#x....; entities

I do this no matter that the encoding of the document is set to.

So I always send "well formed" XML.

I should probably be more conservative and encode everything > 0XEF  
so that implementations which don't understand UTF-8 but do  
understand numeric character entities will be able to process the  
message.
