ignore DTD in XML document and provide an DTD at runtime

Hi, All,

I had XML files created by XML applications on Windows. Those documents has
declaration like:

<!DOCTYPE DOC PUBLIC "-//myDoc//My Doc V1.0//EN" "file:///C:/appl/mydoc.dtd"
[ <!ENTITY % revision "Rev 2">]>

The problem is when I process those files in a UNIX server, xerces1.1.1
complains mydoc.dtd not found for obvious reason.

How can I ignore the DTD System Id, and even better, to provide a local DTD
when xerces is running?

Thanks

George Tsai

You need to implement your own org.xml.sax.EntityResolver.
