New feature warn-on-duplicate-entitydef
Hi All,
As per XML 1.0 spec http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml#sec-entity-decl
If the same entity is declared more than once, the first declaration
encountered is binding; at user option, an XML processor may issue a warning if
entities are declared multiple times. The duplicate entity declarations are silently
ignored. Also SAX requires only effective (first) declaration for each
entity(external/internal) to be reported to the appliation.
I have added a feature http://apache.org/xml/features/warn-on-duplicate-entitydef
when set to "true" reports warning to the application for duplicate entity
declarations. This feature works for both validating & non-validating parser
configurations. By default the value of this feature is set to false. So there wont
be any change in the behavior of parser unless this feature is set to "true"
Thanks,
Neeraj
