Subject: [ruby-core:59584] [ruby-trunk - Bug #9367][Feedback] REXML::XmlDecl	doesn't use user specified quotes


Issue #9367 has been updated by duerst (Martin D��rst).

Status changed from Open to Feedback

Strictly speaking, the XML declaration doesn't contain any attributes, only things that look like attributes. They are sometimes called pseudo-attributes. So it is not unreasonable that
doc.context[:attribute_quote] = :quote
does not affect pseudo-attribute quoting.

For attributes, the choice of quoting can affect the amount of escaping. But this doesn't apply to pseudo-attributes, as the 'values' in the pseudo-attributes don't contain quotes.

Can you explain the specific reason you want double quotes in the XML declaration?

=begin
REXML uses double quotes for quoting attributes if :attribute_quote is specified as document's context like below:

 doc = REXML::Document.new
 doc.context[:attribute_quote] = :quote

This looks working well on all elements but has no effect for xml declaration (i.e. <?xml version= ... ?>) if it exists.

Even if I specify (({doc.context[:attribute_quote] = :quote})), I will get this:

 <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' standalone='true'?>
 <root attr1="value1">
   <child attr2="value2"/>
   <child attr3="value3"/>
 </root>

The expected result is:

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="true"?>
 <root attr1="value1">
   <child attr2="value2"/>
   <child attr3="value3"/>
 </root>

=end
