Loading UTF-16 XML about xml HOT 3 CLOSED

Hello there,

I haven't really experimented with UTF16 XML yet tbh.
But the general approach would be to:

use VeeWee\Xml\Dom\Document;
use function VeeWee\Xml\Dom\Configurator\loader;
use function VeeWee\Xml\Dom\Loader\xml_string_loader;

$doc = Document::configure(
    utf16(),
    loader(xml_string_loader($utf16String))
);

This package currently does not ship with a utf16 configurator, but you can take a look at the UTF8 one to base it upon:

/**
 * @return Closure(DOMDocument): DOMDocument
 */
function utf16(): Closure
{
    return static function (DOMDocument $document): DOMDocument {
        $document->encoding = 'UTF-16';

        return $document;
    };
}

If you want to use xml_decode, you probably have to build the document first and use element_decode instead. You can pass in configurators, but you'll need to set the encoding before loading the xml string.

Hi, thanks for the reply.

I actually tried exactly, that, but still got the error that i posted in the OP!

from xml.

ok, looked at this again.
this does work if i run the string though

\Psl\Str\convert_encoding($xml, \Psl\Str\Encoding::UTF_8, \Psl\Str\Encoding::UTF_16),

I'll check, but i think this is an issue with the actual soap webservice returning utf-8 content instead of utf-16, or it's being converted automatically somewhere my end...

Thanks!
