Re: bug in DOMElementWriter

[Jon Stevens]

Here is a better example:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<project name="test" basedir=".">
<echoxml>
 <test attr="&#10;" />
</echoxml>
</project>

[8][ //tmp ]% ant
Buildfile: build.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<test attr="
" />

BUILD SUCCESSFUL
Total time: 0 seconds

Not what I was expecting.
