[jdom-interest] JDom API and encoding type?

[barbara at tli.de]

Hi there!

How Do I get the encoding type into my Document. 
I want <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> in my Document Type 
Declaration. 
org.jdom.DocType doesn't offer any methods to include the encoding
part. 

The problem I work on is:
On server side I create a Document with methods of the JDOM API ->
<--SNIP-->
Element rootElement = new Element("Customers");
rootElement.addAttribute("VARID", some_string); //some_string = "äüö123"
Document jdomDoc = new Document(rootElement);
and so on ...
<--SNIP-->
On client side I don't use an Outputter, only the 
methods of Document and Element to view the data in a JTree. The strings
these methods give back differ from the input on server side.
E.g. the method getAttributeValue gives back some_string="auo123"
 
I hope that specifying the encoding in the Declaration will
solve my problem.
Any suggestions? Thanx for help.
