Hi,

I just did an "Export Resource" and "Import Resource" in the from the
CDO Sessions view.

The import fails with

'Import Resource...' has encountered a problem.

or.xml.sax.SAXParseException: The reference to entity
"Y" must end with the ';' delimiter.

I assume these are the two lines that cause this (taken from the
exported file):

<components id="X&Y" applications="Z"/>
<applications id="Z" components="X&Y anotherId1 anotherId2
anotherId3 anotherId4"/>

So in the first one the ampersand was translated as an XML entity, but
in the second line not.

The association between Components and Applications is many-to-one, one
Application has many Components.

Any hints -- besides avoiding ampersand in ids :) ?

Thanks,
Goetz

I'm not an XML/XMI expert but I think it's not just a good idea to use well-formed identifiers but rather required by
the spec. Maybe Ed has more details.

Of course it's best to avoid this issue. I'm not sure if
XMLResource.OPTION_SKIP_ESCAPE_URI set to false during save will help
avoid this issue...
