[xml] Can I force encoding of single-quote characters?

[jwert ilstechnology com]

I'm using libxml2 with an embedded SQL
database, and it really doesn't like single quote characters in SQL statements.
 All of our xml uses double-quotes to encapsulate attribute values,
and if I read this statement correctly:

'
The apostrophe or single-quote character (')
can be symbolised with this character entity reference when you need to
embed a single-quote or apostrophe inside a string which is already single-quoted.


Then when i use the xmlwriter i get
"'" (double, single, double quotes).  What I want to get
is "'" Is there some flag I can enable for the writer
so I don't have to check for this case manually?

Thanks,

Jim Wert Jr.
