Write the file yourself -- does the tool give you a big string (you can use substring and a small loop or find or something to get the index) that you can write yourself?

I am using xerces, so looking for the solution in xerces.

XMLUni::fgDOMXMLDeclaration is the one feature but am not getting this feature in current xerces
version 3.1.1.

Maybe post your code.

Because it would seem the s/w you're using should be able to do the right thing if what you're passing in is actually valid XML to begin with.

Hi All,
Thanks for your valuable reply.

I was using older xerces version, Now I have updated it to version 3.1.1.

And able to remove default XML declaration line
"<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no" ?>"

by setting false for XMLUni::fgDOMXMLDeclaration.
<code>
ptrDomConfig->setParameter(XMLUni::fgDOMXMLDeclaration, false);
</code>
