[xsd-users] Problem with parsing xml documents containing Chinese characters

[Feng Tony]

Thank you, Boris!

In my last reply, the last question is I wonder if a name can be assigned to
a const char* type as:
const char * pChar = name;
it's convenient, isn't it? May be one can implement it by creating a
subclass of name, but I hadn't tried it yet.

My project can solve my problem right now.
Thank you very much!
