[Expat-discuss] Handling Japanese XML files using Expat

Hi
  I am trying to parse XML documents in Japanese that
have encoding "Shift-JIS" using Expat. I know that
expat has no built in support for this encoding. 
1. Are there plans to enhance Expat to support more
encodings?
2. If I have to write my own handler are there any
code examples that can guide me. Since expat passes
strings to the handler in UTF-8 format, I guess I must
write routines that map the strings from Shift-JIS to
UTF8.
Any body having any insights of handling foreign XML
files, please respond.
With Regards
Anish.
