import chilkat

# 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:

xml = chilkat.CkXml()
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:
sb = chilkat.CkStringBuilder()
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.put_Encoding("utf-8")
print(xml.getXml())
success = xml.SaveXml("qa_output/sample_utf8.xml")
