[Interest] QDateTime + QXmlStreamWriter on non-UTF8 compatible systems

[Scott Bloom]

When using the QXmlStreamWriter to write out an XML file, where one of the sections is a DateTime Field, and the system is non-UTF8 (Japanese in my customer case) the XML generated via

writer.writeCharacters( dateTime.toString() )

Produces XML that cant be read in via QXmlStreamReader

Now, I am guessing, that I have to setup the writer with the proper codec via writer.setCodec( )

The problem is, how do I get the name of the codec properly?  QTExtCodec::codecForLocale returns "System".

How do I get the proper codec that will actually be needed to generate proper XML?
