Subject: Question on xml:space handling
Hi all, Yves logged two issues on the MS XLIFF OM github project (thanks Yves for testing!):
<data> made of spaces only is not preserved <source> with only spaces are emptied on deserialization https://github.com/Microsoft/XLIFF2-Object-Model/issues/11 I have no doubt that the first one is a bug since the default for <data> is preserve. The second one is trickier. The default for <source> and <target> is to allow the application to decide. In this case, the OM is using .Net XmlReader, which removes whitespace by default. So, in order to preserve whitespace during serialization/deserialization,
the user must set xml:space=”preserve” to override the default behavior of XmlReader. So my question to this esteemed body of professionals: Should the MS XLIFF OM override the default behavior of XmlReader and preserve whitespace when xml:preserve=”default”? Thanks, Ryan |
