Description lxl0621 2002-12-23 09:07:56 UTC 
when i signatured a xml file containing DTD file,it will fail if the DTD 
file contains Chinese . So I consider that the signature cannot recognise 
a Chinese DTD file so that the signature cannot process the Chinese xml 
file.For example: 
<!ELEMENT books (#PCDATA|名字|writer>
<!ELEMENT 名字 (#PCDATA)>
<!ELEMENT writer (#PCDATA)>
I asked aleksey and he tell me to ask you .He considered in libxml2 I will 
find the reseason.Can you tell me how to process DTD including Chinese 
word? Please answer me as quickly as possible . 
Thanks a lot.

Libxml2 should provide support for chinese unicode characters
assuming the encoding is recognized.
Provide a full example, and attach it to the bug report.
See http://xmlsoft.org/bugs.html for instructions, especially
I want something reproductible with xmllint.
Cut and paste from this bug report will not work for chinese
character, so there is no useful informations in this current
report.

Not a bug apparently. The XPath queries were encoded in
gb2312 and not UTF-8.
The byte sequence for the name is #E5#90#8D#E5#AD#97 and not 
"Ãû×Ö" in UTF-8.

paphio:~/tmp -> xmllint --debug tst.xml
DOCUMENT
version=1.0
encoding=gb2312
URL=tst.xml
standalone=true
  DTD(book), SYSTEM book.dtd
  ELEMENT book
    TEXT
      content=
    ELEMENT #E5#90#8D#E5#AD#97
      TEXT
        content=#E4#B9#A6#E5#90#8D
    TEXT
      content=
    ELEMENT writer
      TEXT
        content=lxl
    TEXT
      content=
