j:file and xml files


Hi,

How can I generate XML files with <j:file ... >, notice that I need to add DTD
declaration in generated files. 

    <j:file name="${basedir}/resources/application.xml" escapeText="true"
trim="true" prettyPrint="true" outputMode="xml" xmlns="dummy">

<!DOCTYPE application PUBLIC '-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD J2EE Application
1.3//EN' 'http://java.sun.com/dtd/application_1_3.dtd'>
<application>
    <display-name>${j2ee.displayName}</display-name>
    <description>${j2ee.displayName}</description>
    <module>
        <ejb>${ejb}</ejb>
    </module>
    <module>
        <web>
          <web-uri>${uri}</web-uri>
          <context-root>${j2ee.contextRoot}</context-root>
        </web>
      </module>
</application>

    </j:file>

Maven crash with : 

org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: doctype not allowed in content.
        at org.apache.xerces.parsers.AbstractSAXParser.parse(Unknown Source)
        at javax.xml.parsers.SAXParser.parse(Unknown Source)
        at
org.apache.maven.plugin.PluginCacheManager.parse(PluginCacheManager.java:365)
        at
org.apache.maven.plugin.PluginManager.loadJellyScript(PluginManager.java:481)
      

Thx,
-emmanuel

Try:

    <j:file name="${basedir}/resources/application.xml" escapeText="true"
trim="true" prettyPrint="true" outputMode="xml" xmlns="dummy">
<![CDATA[
<!DOCTYPE application PUBLIC '-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD J2EE Application
1.3//EN' 'http://java.sun.com/dtd/application_1_3.dtd'>
]]>
<application>
    <display-name>${j2ee.displayName}</display-name>
    <description>${j2ee.displayName}</description>
    <module>
        <ejb>${ejb}</ejb>
    </module>
    <module>
        <web>
          <web-uri>${uri}</web-uri>
          <context-root>${j2ee.contextRoot}</context-root>
        </web>
      </module>
</application>

    </j:file>

The issue is that maven.xml is itself an XML file and the parser does 
not expect to find a <!DOCTYPE declaration in the middle of an XML file, 
so you need to escape it by using the CDATA declaration. You might need 
to move the closing ]]> to the end of your file contents so that none of 
the XML fragment is interpreted by the parser of the maven.xml file!

Richard.
