http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16094 Xerces fails on empty entities Summary: Xerces fails on empty entities Product: Xerces2-J Version: 2.2.1 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: Other Component: DTD AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'm playing around with JBoss and its data sources. I have several data sources that differ only in a suffix in the XADataSoureName. So I made a template with an internal dtd and the only thing a have to change is a value in the internal dtd to get a new data source. I have xerces in directory $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/endorsed because I need xerces and not crimson as xml parser. I use JDK1.4.1 on Windows 2000. Here is a xml fragment: <!ENTITY house-id ""> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?> <!DOCTYPE server [ <!ENTITY house-id ""> <!ENTITY db-host "..."> <!ENTITY db-user "..."> <!ENTITY db-pass "..."> <!ENTITY db-datasource-class "..."> <!ENTITY jndi-ds-prefix "jdbc/"> ]> <server> .... <attribute name="JndiName"> &jndi-ds-prefix;jvadta&house-id; </attribute> </server> When I leave the entity 'house-id' empty, then JBoss tries to bind the data source to 'java:/'. That means to me that xerces drops both entities in the given element. When I set the entity 'house-id' to " " (there is really a blank) then xerces normalizes this to "" (there is really no blank) and all works fine.
