Sax feature should throw SAXNotSupportedException.

[Arun Yadav <Ar...@Sun.COM>]

Hi 

 According to latest SAX doc from 
http://www.saxproject.org/apidoc/org/xml/sax/package-summary.html, when 
external-general-entities and external-parameter-entities should be always true 
when validation feature is true. 
 
 <snip>
 If the application attempts to set a feature state or property value that 
reader cannot support at that time or attempts to modify a feature or property 
when it is read only, reader throws a SAXNotSupportedException.
 </snip>
 
Right now, we can set feature 
http://xml.org/sax/features/external-general-entities to true even if we have 
http://xml.org/sax/features/validation  to false. It should throw the 
SAXNotSupportedException as per SAX specification. 


what's ur view/opinion ?
 

Thanks
