Re: indexing xml files with relative links to dtds

Ok, I used parser.setFeature to turn the validation

before...

Any suggestions with regards to this?

The solution is relatively simple - you need to implement your own EntityResolver, and set the parser to use your resolver instead of the built-in one. You need to implement the following method in your EntityResolver:

/** This method is called when the parser encounters a reference
* to external entity. If this method returns valid InputSource, with
* InputStream open, the parser will use it, otherwise it will
* try to get the resource itself, opening any connections needed.
*/
public InputSource resolveEntity(String publicId, String systemId) {
...
}

It's good to extend DefaultHandler, to avoid implementing methods that don't matter to you.
