DOMImplementation.createDocumentType ()

I'm trying to create an empty doctype that looks like:

<!DOCTYPE foo SYSTEM "uri://location">

...but all I can manage to create is:

<!DOCTYPE foo PUBLIC "uri://location" "">

using DOMImplementation.createDocumentType ().

Is is possible to create a 'SYSTEM' doctype like this, or can you only
create 'PUBLIC' doctypes with DOMImplementation?

Thank you for your help,

Here is how I create new documents, if it can help :

    DocumentType documentType = new DocumentTypeImpl(null, null, null,
dtdName);
    document = new DocumentImpl(documentType);

It creates documents with a "SYSTEM" keyword.
