Hello Javi,
Can you tell me which omws service address are you using?
The library does escape the special characters &, < and >, but I've
just noticed that double quotes were not being escaped (fixed now).
The library returns content in latin1. However, the soap server will
always return content in utf-8.
I tested with the "official" omws service
(http://modeller.cria.org.br/cgi-bin/om_soap_server.cgi) and it seems
to be working with the most recent list of algorithms. I've dumped
the response and copied to a static document if you want to check:
http://www.cria.org.br/~renato/omws_alg_metadata_dump.xml
Maybe you're using another service address with an older version of
the library? Or maybe there's something doing some conversions
between the real raw XML you receive and your parser?
Regards,
