LexicalHandler startEntity/endEntity events not paired and have incorrect 
arguments
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: XERCESC-1828
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESC-1828
             Project: Xerces-C++
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: SAX/SAX2
    Affects Versions: 2.8.0
         Environment: OS/X, Win32
            Reporter: Erik Wright
         Attachments: test.xml

It appears that the LexicalHandler events startEntity and endEntity are not 
sent correctly when parsing a document with a DTD that itself references 
external entities.

(Note: I will attach sample XML, repro code, and the full output of the code. 
The following is a summary.)

For example, I have been parsing a valid XHTML document. The strict XHTML DTD 
includes 4 other files with entity declarations. I see the following events on 
my LexicalHandler (ignoring elements, characters, whitespace, external entity 
declarations, and comments):

startDocument
...
startDTD: html, -//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN, 
http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd
...
startEntity: [dtd]
...
startEntity: [dtd]
...
startEntity: [dtd]
...
startEntity: [dtd]
...
endEntity: [dtd]
...
endDTD
...
endDocument

I expected something more like the following (as generated by the standard SAX 
parser in Java 6):

startDocument
startDTD: 'html', '-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN', 
'http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd'
startEntity: '[dtd]'
startEntity: '%HTMLlat1'
endEntity: '%HTMLlat1'
startEntity: '%HTMLsymbol'
endEntity: '%HTMLsymbol'
startEntity: '%HTMLspecial'
endEntity: '%HTMLspecial'
startEntity: '%head.misc'
endEntity: '%head.misc'
startEntity: '%head.misc'
endEntity: '%head.misc'
startEntity: '%head.misc'
endEntity: '%head.misc'
startEntity: '%head.misc'
endEntity: '%head.misc'
startEntity: '%head.misc'
endEntity: '%head.misc'
startEntity: '%block'
endEntity: '%block'
startEntity: '%inline'
endEntity: '%inline'
startEntity: '%misc'
endEntity: '%misc'
startEntity: '%block'
endEntity: '%block'
startEntity: '%misc'
endEntity: '%misc'
startEntity: '%block'
endEntity: '%block'
startEntity: '%inline'
endEntity: '%inline'
startEntity: '%misc'
endEntity: '%misc'
endEntity: '[dtd]'
endDTD
startPrefixMapping: '', 'http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'
endPrefixMapping: ''
endDocument

At a minimum, the mismatch of startEntity/endEntity events appears to be caused 
by the following code from DTDScanner::scanExtSubsetDecl (notice that the 
conditions are not the same):

   if (fDocTypeHandler && !inIncludeSect)
       fDocTypeHandler->startExtSubset();

   ...
   ...
   ...

   if (fDocTypeHandler && isDTD)
       fDocTypeHandler->endExtSubset();
