Android: SaxParser problems using ISO-8859-1 encoding

Im facing some problems on xml parsi开发者_如何学编程ng with android. The problem is that the xml from the server comes in "ISO-8859-1" set with setEncoding (i get <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>) format and the android device seems that its ignoring that encoding.

For example this is part of the original xml that comes from the server:

<Result Filename="Pautas para la Presentación RUP Iteraciones de Construcción.ppt">
        <Path>C:\Documents and Settings\zashael\My Documents\PFC\RUP\Pautas para la Presentación RUP Iteraciones de Construcción.ppt</Path>
        <Hostname>computer_1</Hostname>
        <IP>192.168.0.5:27960</IP>
        <ModDate>01-ene-1601 2:06:34</ModDate>
        <Size>33.280 bytes</Size>
    </Result>

And this is what i get on the phone before parsing the xml:

</Result>
 <Result Filename="Pautas para la Presentaci�n RUP Fase Inicio.ppt">
     <Path>C:\Documents and Settings\zashael\My Documents\PFC\RUP\Pautas para la Presentaci�n RUP Fase Inicio.ppt</Path>
     <Hostname>computer_1</Hostname>
     <IP>192.168.0.5:27960</IP>
     <ModDate>01-ene-1601 1:32:06</ModDate>
    <Size>26.624 bytes</Size>
 </Result>

As you can see there is a problem with the word "presentación".

This is the part of code where i recieve the file, and then send it to the parser:

do
                    {
                        auxMessage = ois.readObject();

                        if (auxMessage instanceof ComConstants)
                        {
                            receivedMessage = (ComConstants) auxMessage;

                            Log.d("Client", "Client has Search Results"); 

                         //Charset charset = Charset.forName("ISO-8859-1"); 
                         //CharsetDecoder decoder = charset.newDecoder(); 
                         //CharsetEncoder encoder = charset.newEncoder(); 



                            String test;

                            test = new String(
                                    receivedMessage.fileContent, 0,
                                    receivedMessage.okBytes);

                            if (finalMessage == null) {
                                finalMessage = test;
                            }
                            else {                          
                                finalMessage += test;
                            }


                         /*try { // Convert a string to ISO-LATIN-1 bytes in a ByteBuffer 
                             // The new ByteBuffer is ready to be read. 
                             ByteBuffer bbuf = encoder.encode(CharBuffer.wrap(finalMessage)); 
                             // Convert ISO-LATIN-1 bytes in a ByteBuffer to a character ByteBuffer and then to a string. 
                             // The new ByteBuffer is ready to be read. 
                             CharBuffer cbuf = decoder.decode(bbuf); 
                             String s = cbuf.toString(); 

                            finalMessage = s;

                             } 

                         catch (CharacterCodingException e) { } 
                         }*/

                        }
                         else
                        {
                            Log.d("Client", "Unexpected message "
                                    + auxMessage.getClass().getName()); 

                            break;
                        }
                    } while (!receivedMessage.lastMessage);


                    //test encoding
                    //String s = finalMessage;
                    //finalMessage = new  String(s.getBytes("ISO-8859-1"));


                    System.out.println("antes de parsear" + finalMessage);

                    SaxParser sap = new SaxParser(finalMessage);

And this is my parser code:

        }


}

I dont know what to do. I tried setting the string i create after recieving the xml bytes to ISO encoding, but the only thing i got was a "square" instead of "ón".

Than you!

The server may say it's ISO-8859-1 but it looks like it's sending UTF-8.

If you have control of the server code, make sure you are setting the encoding on the output stream correctly. Just adding the <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> header does not cause the output to be in the correct encoding.
