   Re: [xml-dev] [off-topic] xtext -- encoding declarations for text

[ Lists Home | Date Index | Thread Index ]

Rick Jelliffe scripsit:

> Comments welcome. 

The following regex (to be interpreted as referring to bytes, not characters)
should reliably detect the presence of an xtext declaration.  

\A(\0*.){1,4}\0*(x\0*t\0*e\0*x\0*t\0* |\xA7\xA3\x85\xA7\xA3\x40)

\A means the beginning of the string, \0* skips any number of null bytes
introduced by UTF-16 or UTF-32 encodings, and the \xA7...\x40 is "xtext "
in the common subset of EBCDIC.
