Michael Glavassevich resolved XERCESJ-1181.
-------------------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Thanks Jake. I've committed your patch to SVN. The entity map contains an
Entity node for each of the general entities declared in the DTD. The one
Entity in the source document is being copied into the cloned document. If the
children of the DocumentType node weren't expanded until you cloned the
document and you were examining the source document in a debugger before clone
is called you wouldn't have seen the Entity node because it wouldn't have been
created yet.
> internal subset lost after using cloneNode (patch provided!)

> Key: XERCESJ-1181
> URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESJ-1181
> Project: Xerces2-J
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: DOM (Level 3 Core)
> Affects Versions: 2.8.0
> Reporter: Jacob Kjome
> Assigned To: Michael Glavassevich
> Attachments: CoreDocumentImpl.patch
>
>
> I parse my XML document using the Xerces DOMParser. The internal subset
> exists
> perfectly intact in the resulting DOM until I call Document.cloneNode(true).
> When I
> perform a print of the nodes, here's what the document type looks
> like, first before the clone (expected) and then after (actual)....
> Expected....
> DocumentTypeImpl: name=document
> internalSubset=
> <!ENTITY erh "Elliotte Rusty Harold">
> <!ELEMENT document (title, signature)>
> <!ELEMENT title (#PCDATA)>
> <!ELEMENT copyright (#PCDATA)>
> <!ELEMENT email (#PCDATA)>
> <!ELEMENT hr EMPTY>
> <!ELEMENT lastmodified (#PCDATA)>
> <!ELEMENT signature (hr, copyright, email, lastmodified)>
> Actual....
> DocumentTypeImpl: name=document
> EntityImpl: name=erh
> TextImpl: Elliotte Rusty Harold
> As you can see, Document.cloneNode(true) seems to turn the internal
> subset <!ENTITY> into an actual Entity Node and the rest of the
> internal subset (the <!ELEMENT>'s) is discarded. This makes the document
> invalid
> since there is no DTD information where there was in the original document.
> I applied a small patch to CoreDocumentImpl (attached) and now it works as
> expected, other than the fact that in addition to the internal subset
> existing, the Entity node exists as a child of the DocumentType, which is
> odd. I'm not sure if that's valid or not, though it didn't exist in the DOM
> before Document.cloneNode(true), so it seems to me it shouldn't be there.
> However, if it doesn't hurt anything, I guess it doesn't matter much to me.
> Anyway, after my patch, here's the new result...
> DocumentTypeImpl: name=document
> internalSubset=
> <!ENTITY erh 'Elliotte Rusty Harold'>
> <!ELEMENT document (title,signature)>
> <!ELEMENT title (#PCDATA)>
> <!ELEMENT copyright (#PCDATA)>
> <!ELEMENT email (#PCDATA)>
> <!ELEMENT hr EMPTY>
> <!ELEMENT lastmodified (#PCDATA)>
> <!ELEMENT signature (hr,copyright,email,lastmodified)>
> EntityImpl: name=erh
> TextImpl: Elliotte Rusty Harold
> I hope this can get applied in time for the next release of Xerces!
