Not an exception?

Right, since char is expected to contain UTF-8.

Yes you should be able to.

Yes, if you compiled the generated code with XSD_USE_LCP and your
system code page is iso8859-7 (or equivalent Windows name) then you
should be able to pass Greek characters in char. You may also be
able to save it as iso8859-7 (or Windows name) using  Xerces-C++
you have (which uses Win32 API for character encoding).
