Instance Method Details

#after_parse ⇒ Object

After an input string has been marshalled into an object, ROXML will automatically call this method.

LibXML (and therefore ROXML) appears to forget the encoding of the input data, a damn shame considering the Ruby 1.9 encoding support can be vey useful.

Since we only ever pass our ROXML objects strings we know are utf-8 encoded, it should be safe enough to force every string attribute back once the marshalling is done.
