(Node.js) Load ucs2 XML File (utf-16)

Demonstrates how to load a ucs2 (utf-16 little-endian) XML file into Chilkat XML.

Install Chilkat for Node.js and Electron using npm at Chilkat npm packages for Node.js Chilkat npm packages for Electron on Windows, Linux, MacOSX, and ARM

    // If the XML file specifies the encoding in the XML declaration, such as:
    // <?xml version = "1.0" encoding = "UTF-16" standalone = "no" ?>
    // Then it's simply a matter of calling LoadXmlFile.
    // Chilkat will automatically read the XML declaration and will
    // process the file correctly.   For example:

    var xml = new chilkat.Xml();
    var success = xml.LoadXmlFile("qa_data/xml/sample_ucs2.xml");

    // If, however, there is no XML declaration to indicate the character encoding,
    // then you must explicitly read the file according to what you know
    // is the correct encoding.  For example:
    var sb = new chilkat.StringBuilder();
    success = sb.LoadFile("qa_data/xml/sample_ucs2.xml","utf-16");
    // Assuming success...
    success = xml.LoadSb(sb,true);

    // To convert to the XML from utf-16 to utf-8, do the following:
    xml.Encoding = "utf-8";
    console.log(xml.GetXml());
    success = xml.SaveXml("qa_output/sample_utf8.xml");
