quick-xml 0.25.0

//! This example demonstrate how custom entities can be extracted from the DOCTYPE!,
//! and later use to decode text and attribute values.
//!
//! NB: this example is deliberately kept simple:
//! * it assumes that the XML file is UTF-8 encoded (custom_entities must only contain UTF-8 data)
//! * it only handles internal entities;
//! * the regex in this example is simple but brittle;
//! * it does not support the use of entities in entity declaration.
