Character Entities

[JC Francois]

Hi,

I can't seem to get entities handled properly. The documentation (http://www.grinninglizard.com/tinyxmldocs/index.html) says:
TinyXML recognizes the pre-defined "character entities". These are recognized when the XML document is read, and translated to there UTF-8 equivalents. For instance, text with the XML of "Far & Away" will have the Value() of "Far & Away" when queried from the TiXmlText object.

Here's my test case:

File test.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<unicode_test>Here's an ampersand: &amp; and here's another one: &#x26;</unicode_test>

My code:
TiXmlDocument Doc("test.xml");
bool loadOkay = Doc.LoadFile();
if (loadOkay)
{
    TiXmlHandle DocH(&Doc);
    const char* TextValue = DocH.FirstChild("unicode_test").FirstChild().ToText()->Value();
}

When I watch the value of TextValue I get "Here's an ampersand: &amp; and here's another one: &#x26;" instead of the expected UTF-8 equivalent string.

What am I doing wrong? How can I get TinyXML to handle character entities as UTF-8?

Thanks,
