Hi there,
I would like to read XML
messages from a TCP/IP stream. One issue
is determining the end of an
XML message. My latest solution just
tries to parse the message
everytime it receives a ">".
Now the Problem: the parsing
always automatically tries to retrieve
the DTD and do a validation.
But if the DTD does not exist, every
parsing attempt takes
forever.
Question: How can I
completely disable DTD retrieval and validation ?
Any sugegstion how I should
modify my sample code below ?
thanx Mike
