[2.27] & not being escaped properly in XML output
|
Create a new session
Goto settings editor
Create a class called "hello&goodbye" (without the quotes)
Export the window to XML
Create a new session and try to import that XML, it fails saying it expects a ;
The XML output is
| Code: |
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
<cmud>
<window name="Test" usesession="false">
<uid>{0E35B4A1-9E22-49E8-A720-1728DD3AB1B0}</uid>
<packages>English Keypad|English Directions|Clickable URLs|Test</packages>
<class name="hello&goodbye"/>
</window>
</cmud> |
Note on line 6 the "hello&goodbye"
This should be "hello&goodbye"
If you change it to that then import then the import is fine. |

Well that is true because & isn't a valid character for a class name. CMUD does not generally parse strings for XML codes when they are not supposed to contain any. I'll add this to a future to-do list just to clean it up. But if you start using special characters in things like class names, variable names, alias names, etc, then you will probably run into all sorts of weird problems.

But if the editor allows you to create settings with invalid names, how is someone to know the name is invalid? I presume it's in the docs somewhere, but still...
