Re: Entities not supported in DTDs
Mr. Guldbaek,
I am not able to reproduce your claim.
This is what I tried :
This is my xml file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE FOO SYSTEM "foo5.dtd" >
<FOO>
<FOOFOO ident="123"/>
</FOO>
This is my dtd file foo5.dtd:
<!ENTITY % ident "ident NMTOKEN #REQUIRED" >
<!ELEMENT FOO (FOOFOO|BAR?)>
<!ELEMENT BAR (MOCHA*)>
<!ELEMENT FOOFOO (#PCDATA)>
<!ATTLIST FOOFOO %ident; >
When I run sax.SAXCount with validation turn on:
syslitbug5.xml: 3194 ms (2 elems, 1 attrs, 0 spaces, 5 chars)
Would you please send to jeffreyr@us.ibm.com a testcase that
reproduces you claim.
THanks,
Jeffreyr Rodriguez

I turned validation on and everything seems to be running fine - my mistake.
Thanks :-)
