This is what the bug report says:


It seems that s2b does not support setAttributeValue  opeartion if any of  two
symbols are inside of  attribute values - "<" and "]"
Above symbols are not converted to proper xml symbol codes (like &lt;), but
replaced by "?".
(meanwhile, get command does make the proper back conversions e.g "&lt;" ===> "<")

    The cause is in XMLUtil.java:
       /** Test if character can be in attr value
         */
        public static boolean isAttrContent(int i) {
            // return false for leading ACSII chars (except tab char)
            if (i<9) return false;
            if (i>9 && i<32) return false;
            // return false for <, ]
            if (i==60 || i==93) return false;
            // otherwise return true
            return true;
        }
