Hi, I have the following property tree, dumped in INFO format: CudbAppServiceId=1 { userLabel "" sqlAppSrvPlSchema identities-pl.sql CudbAppServiceId CudbAppServiceId=1 } When I dump it in XML format, I got the following: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <CudbAppServiceId=1> <userLabel/> <sqlAppSrvPlSchema>identities-pl.sql</sqlAppSrvPlSchema> <CudbAppServiceId>CudbAppServiceId=1</CudbAppServiceId> </CudbAppServiceId=1> This is not a valid XML, because we have a tag "CudbAppServiceId=1". Of course, any other xml parser like xmllint will fail to parse it, because of the equality sign in the tag. Is there any solution to this problem? Like somehow emitting = instead of the raw '=' inside the tag and in the text? Thanks, Gabor
