[sword-devel] libsword issue in handling XML entities such as &

[David Haslam]

Hi DM,

Further to the feedback relating to the recent updates of the FreGeneve1669 module...

Has anyone yet created an issue in JIRA for the failure of libsword to output the & character wherever a module contains the XML entity & ?

Which other XML entities have the same issue?

-  Likely candidates include < and >

-  There may be others such as ' and "

Does the issue also pertain to their numerical equivalents, whether in decimal or hexadecimal form? e.g. &x#0027;
Any remedy should also take account that some such entities are also valid when the name is uppercase, e.g. &

Best regards,
