DOCTYPE PUBLIC / SYSTEM DTD URI specification troubls
Hi,
I am relatively new to XML and xerces. I am having some trouble with the
DOCTYPE declaration.
During my unit testing of my project my DOCTYPE declaration has been:
<!DOCTYPE EligCheckRequest PUBLIC
"http://www.medibank.com.au/B2B/eligcheckrequest_v3.dtd"
"file:/D:/B2B_2/B2B_Properties/au/com/medibank/util/xml/DTDs/eligcheckrequest_v3.dtd">
which worked fine (ie parsed correctly).
However when I tried to do a proper test (without the SYSTEM component)
ie
<!DOCTYPE EligCheckRequest PUBLIC
"http://www.medibank.com.au/B2B/eligcheckrequest_v3.dtd">
I get an exception
Error: White space is required between the public identifier and the
system identifier.
au.com.medibank.util.xml.TranslationException: White space is required between
the public identifier and the system identifier.
java.lang.Throwable(java.lang.String)
java.lang.Exception(java.lang.String)
au.com.medibank.util.xml.TranslationException(java.lang.String)
java.lang.Object
au.com.medibank.util.xml.BeanXMLCodec.convertXMLToBean(java.lang.String,
java.util.Properties)
java.lang.Object
au.com.medibank.util.xml.test.TestTranslation.xmlToBean(java.lang.String,
java.lang.String)
boolean
au.com.medibank.util.xml.test.TestTranslation.testRequestMessageTranslation(java.lang.String,
java.lang.String)
void au.com.medibank.util.xml.test.TestTranslation.main(java.lang.String
[])
which seemed to indicate that it was looking for a PUBLIC and a SYSTEM location.
When I alter the DOCTYPE declaration so that it has an empty string "" in the
SYSTEM location it works fine ?
ie
<!DOCTYPE EligCheckRequest PUBLIC
"http://www.medibank.com.au/B2B/eligcheckrequest_v3.dtd" "">
So is there some property or feature that I am supposed to set so this works ???
Before anyone asks- I have implemented the EntityResolver interface at it is
locating the correct file from the URI (ie it works with the emtpy string SYSTEM
locator).
I am at a loss and would appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks
Todd

Re: DOCTYPE PUBLIC / SYSTEM DTD URI specification troubls
Posted by Eric Ye <er...@locus.apache.org>.
if you have <!DOCTYPE EligCheckRequest PUBLIC "a publicid"...
it is required that a system id immediately follows the publid id, it can't
be removed base in Production 28 and 75 in XML1.0 spec.
