Hi,
Is XML export used at all? It was missing data escaping in many places, and structure (table, function, ...) export was just broken. I fixed it a bit, but there are still some problems that remain:
- escaping of table/db names and data in other encodings than ISO-8859-1
- it uses SHOW CREATE TABLE without any required fixes
File format itself is interesting. I don't expect XML Schema for it to exist, but at least namespace usage should be consistent.
I think fixing this and rewriting output format to be more consistent should appear on Tasks for junior developers. And maybe extending it to output data in more concise format, eg.:
<table name=""> <row> <column_name>value</column_name> ... </row> ... </table>
Piotr, XML export is probably used, how can we know?
Maybe nobody needs DDL in it or we have too few people using it to report bugs :)
In your testing, was it just a problem in master or also in 3.4.x?
Also in 3.4.x (STABLE). Go to database `evil'"*/>` and try to export table `evil'"*/>` with all options selected. You will get only data (no structure) and invalid XML
Another broken plugin is CodeGen, it ignores it's format setting and always outputs C# code (I will push a bugfix to master later today).
