Hi, I have been doing some work with entity catlogs and have noticed some interesting behaviour. It appears system ids are being ignored if used with a DOCTYPE declaration, only public ids are picked up. I can successfully map something like:
<!DOCTYPE person PUBLIC "-//PIGBITE//DTD Person V1.0//EN" "http://www.pigbite.com/dtd/person.dtd <http://www.pigbite.com/dtd/person.dtd> "> using an entry like PUBLIC "-//PIGBITE//DTD Person V1.0//EN" "dtd/person.dtd" But <!DOCTYPE person "http://www.pigbite.com/dtd/person.dtd <http://www.pigbite.com/dtd/person.dtd> "> does not get mapped even if SYSTEM http://www.pigbite.com/dtd/person.dtd <http://www.pigbite.com/dtd/person.dtd> " "dtd/person.dtd" is in the local catalog. I've noted that if a systemId is used to reference an entity - e.g. <!ENTITY jez SYSTEM "http://www.pigbite.com/dtd/jez.txt <http://www.pigbite.com/dtd/jez.txt> "> and a corresponding map is in the catalog file: SYSTEM "http://www.pigbite.com/dtd/jez.txt <http://www.pigbite.com/dtd/jez.txt> " "jez.txt" then this is resolved correctly. This does not appear to be a fundamental catalog problem. I modified the entity catalog tests to test the above scenarios and everything worked. Interestingly the tests force the public Id and systemId args in the resolveEntity() method call, however further checks what gets passed to resolveEntity in org.apache.cocoon.components.resolver.ResolverImpl show that in the case of DOCTYPE the systemId arg is always NULL, regardless of if a systemId is present either on it's own or along with a publicid. In the case of an ENTITY declaration the systemid and the publicid (if present) are always passed correctly. It would appear that which ever bit of the doc parser picks up the entity references, it is not doing it as I would have expected. The catalog samples work fine, mainly because all the examples follow the above rules. I know the local catalog is being loaded and have tested that using the xml-commons tools, my modified cocoon test build and the fact that the resolution does take place if the "right" rules are followed. Trawling the lists I noted a previous message along similar lines that had no response, and I could not find anything else. Is this behaviour correct or is it a bug? I've looked at several other sites, including the OASIS spec and nothing seems to shed any light on it (other than implying that it should work as expected) so If someone can advise I can either stop trying something that is not meant to happen or raise a bugzilla and do some more debugging. FYI I am using 2.0.3, JDK1.4, JAXP. I have not yet tried it against the current HEAD code or using the XML catalog format (although I am sure the catalog itself is fine) TIA jez
