Unicode Characters

[NIESolutions]

While using SwiftyXMLParser with a string with unicode characters inside, the parser automatically stops at the (probably) unknown message.

Inside Message was something like this:
<xmlopening>@ß123\u{1c}</xmlopening>

I think the \u{1c} is a character caused by application / data transfer error.

After this line in file, the rest of XML will be ignored.

I'm sorry for my late.

XMLParser cannot parse '\u{1c}', because it is invalid as XML Document. Refer to the link.

You have to escape them with percent encoding to make a valid XML document.

let str2 = "<xmlopening>@ß123\u{1c}</xmlopening>"
    .addingPercentEncoding(withAllowedCharacters: CharacterSet.controlCharacters.inverted)
let xml = try! XML.parse(str2!)
print(xml["xmlopening"].text!.removingPercentEncoding!) // -> "@ß123\u{1C}"

I updated this library to support the invalid character error.
