Invalid Name Character

Hi All,

I am facing an issue in the XmlTextWriter class in the dotnet 2.0.

This is the sample code

Actual XML is like this

<Name>詳細仕様に</Name>

code:

strvalue = "詳細仕様に"

public override void WriteString(string strValue)
{
int intPstn;

if(strValue.IndexOf("&") != -1)
{
intPstn = 0;

foreach(Match entMatch in rxEnt.Matches(strValue))
{
base.WriteString(strValue.Substring(intPstn, entMatch.Index - intPstn));

try
{
base.WriteEntityRef(entMatch.Value);
}
catch
{
base.WriteString(entMatch.Value);
}

intPstn = entMatch.Index + entMatch.Length;
}

base.WriteString(strValue.Substring(intPstn));
}
else
base.WriteString(strValue);
}


Here the base class is XmlTextWriter.

I am getting an error in base.WriteEntityRef as "Invalid name character in
&#x8A73" and please let me know how to resolve it.

Regards,
Vinod

What do you want to achieve?
If you want to write a character reference to a character then use
WriteCharEntity e.g.
writer.WriteCharEntity('a')
if you want to write an entity reference then use WriteEntityRef and
pass in the name of the entity e.g.
writer.WriteEntityRef("apos")
