Fix escaping of XML text and attributes #32

Closed ittner closed 11 years ago

ittner commented 11 years ago

Currently, all XML special characters (<, >, &, ") are sent to the server verbatim, implying in invalid a invalid session and dropping the connection.

How to reproduce the bug:

Send any stanza with a text node containing <, > or & or an attribute containing ". OR;
Run example/bot.c and sent a message with a special character to the bot. It will be disconnected from the server.

The linked branch fixes the bug.
