Admin Links from Package troubles

A lot of work stops me from investigating it further, but I've experienced some errors in admin links (dlinks) from cognos package when data contained double qoutes (").
I guess, this is due to the fact that package links generate an xml mapping file (source to destination) which contains lines like
and this file is then validated by standard parser which really unhappy to see lines like
.

Anybody out there with similar problems?

Hi,

I’d problems in 8.2 when having the datastore on a named SQL Server instance. Creating an alias without “\” did the job.

regards.

Hi, great blog ykud.
I had similar problems with full stops (.), and I understand some other punctuation characters caused problems too. I think they were hoping to get this fixed for 8.4.

Thanks, Mike.

I’m going to check it out with 8.4, because I seriously doubt that package admin links are usable with such bug ;)
