xml stax解析器文件中的特殊字符

Question

original xml file: 
<root> <article>
<artists><artist role="A&amp;R Staff" id="1">Vance</artist><artists></article>
</root>

When i read the file using stax parser and writing it to the new file it creates which makes the invalid xml file because there is no &amp in the new file.

Answer 1

Below is working for me :

// This can be any InputStream
InputStream is;
XMLInputFactory factory = XMLInputFactory.newInstance();
// Set this property to handle special HTML characters like & etc.
factory.setProperty(XMLInputFactory.IS_COALESCING, true);
// Now use the factory to get the EventReader from the InputStream
XMLEventReader eventReader = factory.createXMLEventReader(is);
