Re: Parsing XML: How do I get the URL of the DTD??

[ne...@ca.ibm.com]

Hi,

Even though you're using the DOM parser, you still have access to the
setEntityResolver method from the SAX.  If you implement your own
org.xml.sax.EntityResolver and register it with the above-mentioned method,
you'll have access to the systemId and be able to do whatever you need to
with it.

Hope that helps,
Neil

Subject:  Parsing XML: How do I get the URL of the DTD??


I am using the DOM parser to parse XML:
org.apache.xerces.parsers.DOMParser parser = new
org.apache.xerces.parsers.DOMParser();
parser.parse(source);

The XML has an external DTD in URL form:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE FIXML SYSTEM "file:///d:/Documents/DTD/blah/blah.dtd" >

How do I get at the URL string?  I believe this is called the SystemID??  I
have tried everything, including:
parser.getLocator().getSystemId();
But parser.getLocater()  returns null.

Any ideas?
