I'm writing a little app that users rss feeds from a website and I've found
that some feeds contain items in different languages. So far, I've only had
feeds that are in Japanese (eucjp). I've managed to get the feed to save
and display properly by adding the charset to my inputstream (or
inputstreamreader, I forgot). Anyway, the problem I'm having is that I'd
like to be able to read the xml, and then figure out the language that each
item is in. It seems that only a few are in Japanese, and I wouldn't be
surprised if they are sometimes mixed with items from different languages.
I've found the "Java port of Mozilla charset detector" and it works ok, but
it still won't be able to handle what I'm trying to do.

I'm using an rss library to parse the xml and give me simple objects to work
with. I'd hate to parse the xml manually by looking at bytes and then
feeding byte arrays to the charset detection library, this seems like a
dumb way to go (plus it means a lot more work).

Has anybody dealt with this in the past? I can't seem to find any solutions
on the net.

Thanks.
