AW: EntityResolver (was: Error parsing files, when filename conta ins german umlauts)

["Amthauer, Heiner" <He...@t-systems.com>]

Hi there!

Well, if the saxParser would behave like you have pointed out, I would have
a bunch of other questions. However, your answer gave me the right hint. As
shown below, I did use the method saxParser.parse(file, handler) and my
content handler is derived from DefaultHandler. Since the DefaultHandler
implements an EntityResolver, the setting setEntityResolver(...) is ignored.
Now, all I had to do was overriding the method resolveEntity(...) and that's
it.

Thanx for your patients.

greetings
Heiner

Since you ask it every 5 minutes, let me as a lurker make an attempt to
answer your question. I notice that you set the entity resolver on the
xml-reader but parse on the parser. Perhaps you could try

XMLReader myReader = saxParser.getXMLReader();
myReader.setEntityResolver(new MyEntityResolver());
myReader.setContentHandler(this);
myReader.parse(file);

or something like that.

I did not try this (although our entity resolvers in Xerces work like a
charm), but looking at the Xerces source code for 5 seconds (so not a
definite answer) I would say saxParser.parse(...) does not use the xml
reader object on which you set the entity resolver.

Kind regards,

--Sander.
