Description

SVG fonts with character that use a hex unicode name such as &x#ab; are not correctly decoded by dojo.gfx.VectorFont?._decodeEntitySequence(). Line 74 in revision 15318 of VectorText?.js (​http://trac.dojotoolkit.org/browser/dojox/trunk/gfx/VectorText.js?rev=15318 ) can be changed like this to resolve the problem: 

$ diff VectorText.js-15318 VectorText.js
74c74
<  tmp+=String.fromCharCode(     r[1].slice(2),16);
---
>  tmp+=String.fromCharCode("0x"+r[1].slice(2));

One workaround for this problem is changing the glyph unicode attributes within the SVG font file to use decimal encoding instead of hex. For example, the SVG glyph attribute unicode="&#xE000;" can be changed to unicode="&#57344;" to workaround this issue.

This perl commandline will convert hex unicode attributes into decimal attributes perl -pe 'if (m/unicode=\"&#(x[\da-f]+);/i){ $uni = "0".$1; $_ =~ s/$1/sprintf("%d",eval($uni))/e;}' MyOriginalFont-hex.svg > MyNewFont-decimal.svg

(In [21655]) Make sure we catch the undefined if an entity is not in the XmlEntityMap?. Refs #10508 !strict.
