Support for processing instructions
Hi
I have been unable to find any explicit reference to whether the xml catalog
resolver supports the use of <?oasis-xml-catalog?> processing instructions.
Although I have assumed that they are supported, because of the
allow-oasis-xml-catalog-pi property in CatalogManager.properties.
Can anyone tell me whether they are supported and whether it works?
Whenever I use a processing instruction to identify a catalog, the
resolution of the dtd location always fails.
For example, if I use the following CatalogManager.properties:
catalogs=C:///temp/catalog/catalog1.xml
relative-catalogs=no
verbosity=99
prefer=public
static-catalog=no
allow-oasis-xml-catalog-pi=yes
and run the following command:
java org.apache.xalan.xslt.Process
-ENTITYRESOLVER org.apache.xml.resolver.tools.CatalogResolver
-URIRESOLVER org.apache.xml.resolver.tools.CatalogResolver
-IN "C:\temp\foo.xml"
-XSL "C:\temp\foobar.xslt"
-OUT "C:\temp\foo.html"
(foo.xml contains the following declaration <!DOCTYPE foo PUBLIC
"-//TTA//DTD FOO 1.0//EN" "foo.dtd">)
The output from the catalog resolver indicates that the location of the dtd
has been resolved correctly:
Parse catalog: C:///temp/catalog/catalog1.xml
Loading catalog: C:///temp/catalog/catalog1.xml
Default BASE: file:C:///temp/catalog/catalog1.xml

resolvePublic(-//TTA//ENTITIES Bar entities//EN,file:/C:/temp/dtd/bar.ent)
Resolved public: -//TTA//ENTITIES Bar entities//EN
file:/C:/temp/entities/bar.ent
But when I try again using the following CatalogManager.properties:
catalogs=C:///temp/catalog/catalog2.xml
relative-catalogs=no
verbosity=99
prefer=public
static-catalog=no
allow-oasis-xml-catalog-pi=yes
(Catalog 2 is a valid catalog, but has no entries to resolve PUBLIC
"-//TTA//DTD FOO 1.0//EN" "foo.dtd")
foo1.xml contains an oasis-xml-catalog processing instruction to locate
catalog1.xml which can resolve the location of the dtd (see above).
I tried all of the following as PIs:
<?oasis-xml-catalog catalog="file:///C:/temp/catalog/catalog1.xml"?>
<?oasis-xml-catalog catalog="C:///temp/catalog/catalog1.xml"?>
<?oasis-xml-catalog catalog="catalog/catalog1.xml"?> (foo1.xml is in
C:\temp)
Run the following command:
java org.apache.xalan.xslt.Process
-ENTITYRESOLVER org.apache.xml.resolver.tools.CatalogResolver
-URIRESOLVER org.apache.xml.resolver.tools.CatalogResolver
-IN "C:\temp\foo1.xml"
-XSL "C:\temp\foobar.xslt"
-OUT "C:\temp\foo.html"
Verbose output from the catalog resolver:

It appears that catalog1.xml is not being loaded from the processing
instruction and this is causing the dtd location resolution to fail.
My (probably faulty) understanding of the XML catalog spec (section 5.1) is
that catalogs identified in processing instructions should be processed in
addition to any user- or system-defined catalog entry file lists.
I have been using Xalan Java 2.5.2 on Windows 2000 pro (SP 4).
Results of the Xalan environment check seems to indicate that I have set
everything up OK:
