This is not about parsing. This is about creating XML code. I create a text
node in the DOM tree and pass over the text string with the method
createTextNode (). Every special character seems to get translated into the
&[...]; constructs but the greater sign. That's gotta be a bug.

Unless anybody knows of a better solution I will forward this to
qt-bugs@trolltech.com.

The Qt DOM classes seem to do the conversion to &amp;lt;", "&amp;gt;",
and "&amp;amp;" by themselves. The function that acually does the work
is encodeAttr () which is in qt/src/xml/qdom.cpp:

I think this is intentionnal.

Are you sure it creates problems ? What happens exactly ? Is it QDom(QXml)
that can't parse the resulting file, or is it some other parser (docbook?).

This is not about parsing. This is about creating XML&nbsp;code. I create
a text node in the DOM&nbsp;tree and pass over the text string with the
method createTextNode (). Every special character seems to get translated
into the &amp;[...]; constructs but the greater sign. That's gotta be a
bug.
Unless anybody knows of a better solution I&nbsp;will forward this to
