XML Reserved Characters
Because BPL processes are saved as XML documents, you must use XML entities in the place of XML reserved characters:
| To include this character... |
Use this XML entity... |
| > |
> |
| < |
< |
| & |
& |
| ' |
' |
| " |
" |
For example, to assign the value Joe’s "Good Time" Bar & Grill to a property, set Value equal to the following:
"Joe's "Good Time" Bar & Grill"
This restriction does not apply inside <code> and <sql> activities, because InterSystems IRIS® automatically wraps a CData block around the text that you enter into the editor. (In the XML standard, a CData block encloses text that should not be parsed as XML. Thus you can include reserved characters in that block.)
