Changes to Accepted XML Character Set
As of MarkLogic 9.0-6, parsing of XML documents with an XML declaration that explicitly specifies XML version 1.1 (version="1.1") enforces the XML 1.1 character set. Consequently, you can now create content containing characters not accepted by XML 1.0.
Characters in the XML 1.1 “restricted character” ranges must be given as character entities. This enforcement applies to the following character ranges:
0x1-0x8
0xB-0xC
0xE-0x1F
0x7F-0x84
0x86-0x9F
The following character ranges that were previously disallowed are now accepted.
0x1-0x8
0xB-0xC
0xE-0x1F
Serializing content that contains characters allowed by XML 1.1 but not XML 1.0 can cause problems for client layers that cannot handle the XML 1.1 character set. You can control whether to serialize XML as version 1.0 or 1.1 by setting the output version in your App Server output options, using methods such as the following:
Admin Interface: Set the output version to “1.0” under
Groups>yourGroup>App Servers>yourAppServer>Output Options.Admin API: Call
admin:appserver-set-output-versionwith a value of “1.0” for the $value parameter.REST Management API: Send a request to
PUT:/manage/v2/servers/{id|name}/propertiesthat sets theoutput-versionproperty to “1.0”.
