[xml] xml prologue output

[raymond durand <secalf gmail com>]

Dear all,

 

I am using prelude-manager (www.prelude-ids.com/en) that uses an xml report plugin (xmlmod.c; https://trac.prelude-ids.org/browser/prelude-manager/trunk/plugins/reports/xmlmod/xmlmod.c).

 

My issue is the following: the XML prologue (typically I am looking for <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>) but the xmlmod report plugin does not write it. I would like to have it explicitly written.

 

I asked the prelude-manager mailing list but they say that I should contact the libxml2 mailing list.

 

Could you please give me helpful advice?

 

I have looked at the xmlNodeDumpOutput and xmlNewDoc functions but did not identify what could be the issue

 

891	static void dump_document(xmlmod_plugin_t *plugin, xmlDoc *doc)
892	{
893	xmlNodeDumpOutput(plugin->fd, doc, doc->children, 0, plugin->format, NULL);
894	if ( plugin->format )
895	xmlOutputBufferWriteString(plugin->fd, "\n");
896
897	xmlOutputBufferFlush(plugin->fd);
898
899	if ( plugin->no_buffering )
900	fflush(plugin->fd->context);
901
902	if ( plugin->idmef_dtd )
903	validate_dtd(plugin, doc);
904	}
905
906
907
908	static int xmlmod_run(prelude_plugin_instance_t *pi, idmef_message_t *message)
909	{
910	xmlNodePtr root;
911	xmlDoc *document;
912	xmlmod_plugin_t *plugin = prelude_plugin_instance_get_plugin_data(pi);
913
914	document = xmlNewDoc((const xmlChar *) "1.0");
915	if ( ! document ) {
916	prelude_log(PRELUDE_LOG_ERR, "error creating XML document.\n");
917	return -1;
918	}
919
920	root = xmlNewDocNode(document, NULL, (const xmlChar *) "IDMEF-Message", NULL);
921	if ( ! root ) {
922	xmlFreeDoc(document);
923	return -1;
924	}
925

 

Any help would be welcomed.

Thank you.

 

Regards,

Raymond
