Ignore !DOCTYPE DTD Link

I want to Check in XML Files that have been created with an editor and validated against a DTD.
Here my Question:
Is it possible to tell the SimpleXMLParser to ignore the <!DOCTYPE ... Reference, since it isn't able to validate against the DTD that is referenced.

Oracle iFS 1.0 does not support the use of DTDs with the SimpleXMLParser. It is not possible to have the SimpleXMLParser ignore the <!DOCTYPE> tag.
Oracle iFS' XML parsing capabilities are planned to be enhanced in release 1.1.

Ignoring a DTD reference

I'm trying to load an existing XML document that specifies the DTD as a relative reference:
<!DOCTYPE Overlay SYSTEM "overlay.dtd" >
When I have the DTD in the same directory as the XML file things work, when it's not there it fails with a file not found exception as expected:
java.io.FileNotFoundException: C:\...\overlay.dtd (The system cannot find the file specified)
However it still fails with that even when validation is disabled.
Is there any way to have the parser completely ignore the DTD reference?

I'd suggest you shouldn't be putting those DTD references in your XML if they aren't going to be used. However perhaps you could write your own EntityResolver that catches references to that DTD and replaces them with a reference to some other DTD... maybe a trivial one that does no validation.

ALSB 3.0 - Is it possible to insert doctype DTD?

We are integrating with a client that requires a DTD to be define in the XML ie:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE Request SYSTEM "Request.dtd">
<Xml></Xml>
But I can't find any way to insert this doctype/dtd in a ALSB proxy service. Have tried with several different xquery methods and also an XSLT stylesheet that I know will ad the DTD correctly, but somehow it doesn't work in ALSB.
The service is configured with message type 'Any XML' and HTTP transport.
Does anyone know the correct way to do this?
Thanks,
Jens-Martin

Hello,
to be honest I have no idea about the exact location of doctypes.
But if it is part of the payload you can insert anything with the insert action.
Insert '<DOCTYPE ...>' before chapter in body
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<!DOCTYPE chapter
PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML//EN" "../dtds/docbookx.dtd">
<chapter><title>Chapter 1</title>
anyway it is just a guess.

How to ignore the DTD in an XML file

I am using XMLReader as
XMLReader parser = XMLReaderFactory.createXMLReader("org.apache.xerces.parsers.SAXParser");
to parse an xml document. The XML has a <!DOCTYPE ....> in it which specifies a dtd file. If I do not have the dtd file on my local machine, the parser will fail. How can I tell the parser to ignore the <!DOCTYPE..> line, since I do not want it to validate against the dtd anyway?
Thanks.

just comment out the <!DOCTYPE> element and you will not have any problem and moreover the default behaviour of xerces is not to validate but see the well formedness .If you want to validate the xml document then do this
parser.setFeature("http://xml.org/sax/features/validation" ,true);
this will validate.
hope this will help you

Ignore DOCTYPE tag in xml

Hi!,
I need to remove DOCTYPE tag from the xml file. The parser is trying to validate the DTD. I do not want to validate, I just want to parse. I could not find any documentation on how this can be done. if any one of you have done this please let me know how you have managed to ignore the DOCTYPE tag.
Regards

Here is one way to do it:
Example taglib DOCTYPE:
<!DOCTYPE taglib
PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD JSP Tag Library 1.2//EN"
"http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-jsptaglibrary_1_2.dtd">
Example Code:
// Get your parser, then set its EntityResolver to your own custom er.
parser.setEntityResolver(new EntityResolver()
public InputSource resolveEntity(String publicId, String systemId)
if ("-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD JSP Tag Library 1.2//EN".equals(publicId))
return new InputSource(
new ByteArrayInputStream("<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>".getBytes()));
else
return null;
});

How to ignore DOCTYPE when parsing xml java?

Hello
i am trying to parse some sml files that have:
<!DOCTYPE ModuleRoot SYSTEM "C:\xxx\xmlapp.dtd">
i don;t have the dtd file
how can i ignore it by changing my code and not changing the xml file.
DocumentBuilderFactory documentBuilderFactory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
DocumentBuilder documentBuilder = documentBuilderFactory.newDocumentBuilder();
this.doc = documentBuilder.parse(xmlFileName);
i got exception in this.doc = documentBuilder.parse(xmlFileName);
(The system cannot find the path specified)
Thanks in advance.

You need to create an EntityResolver that returns a dummy DTD. Since you aren't actually validating, this can be as simple as:
 db.setEntityResolver(new EntityResolver()
 public InputSource resolveEntity(String publicId, String systemId)
 throws SAXException, IOException
 return new InputSource(new StringReader(""));
 });For more information, here's an article that I wrote on [XML parsing and validation|http://www.kdgregory.com/index.php?page=xml.parsing].

Creation of XML !DOCTYPE DTD Validation line

Hello all!
I've been working in the creation of an XML File via Abap Objects.
if_ixml For Document Header
if_ixml_document For Document Header
if_ixml_element For Nodes and their Child Nodes
I have already developed the code for creating the XML File.
I think I have it completed, but I don't know how to insert the line that starts with <!DOCTYPE>.
This line validates all the DOM tree structure against a DTD File.
I've been searching for an example of how to do it, but I dind't find anything
Wich is the proper Class, object or method that I have to implement for this topic?
The Line I have to post on the XML file is one like this:
<!DOCTYPE e-billing-payable PUBLIC "-//BxxxxFxxxxx.com//DTD Ebilling Enterprise to Bank 1.0//EN" "https://hb.xxx.com.ar/cobranzasonline/ebillingE2B.dtd">
Thanks in advance,
Claudio.

Thanks Sandra, I was succesfull in getting the doc type but here is the format that I need
<!DOCTYPE gsafeed PUBLIC "-//Google//DTD GSA Feeds//EN" "gsafeed.dtd">
If I try to use entity declaration , it dosen't let me without passing the SYSTEM paramater. Is there any method within if_ixml_document_type or outside, that would help me pass the attributes to get in the below format.
<!DOCTYPE rootElement PUBLIC "PublicIdentifier" "URIreference">
Thanks

Ignoring a DTD validation at message mapping

Hi,
I'm facing the following situation: as a responce for a HTTP service consume, we are getting this payload:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<!DOCTYPE ChannelAdminResult SYSTEM "/AdapterFramework/channelAdmin/ChannelAdmin.dtd">
<More tags....>
the problem is that the message mapping is not able to get the dtd that validates the payload. I did try uploading the dtd file as external definition, but it still not working.
Is there anyway to bypass the !DOCTYPE validation?
Thanks in advance,
Ariel

Hello, I have the same problem. If you have an solution for it, please post it here anyway.
In my case, the external reference is an http-adress. The server has an connection to it, but it doesn't work until now.
I tested the way over the external definition, too, but with the same effect.

DOCTYPE/DTD problem

I am having an issue with JSP's on a network without internet access. The problem seems to be with the DOCTYPE setting in the jsp. The error is showing up in the netbeans status bar (java.lang.AbstractMethodError at org.apache.jasper.xmlparser.ParserUtils.parseXMLDocument(ParserUtils.java:226)at org.apache.jasper.compiler.JspConfig.processWebDotXml(Jsp.................
Does anyone have any advice on how to resolve this issue. I am not able to find a local copy of http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd, which may have helped resolve the issue. Unfortunately I don't think it is possible to get a downloaded copy from the internet due to security restrictions enforced by our admins.

i dunno if there is a generic way of writing a SYSTEM uri that would look into a jar, so:
* using DOM, I would create my own EntityResolver that would point the parser to the DTD located in the jar.
* using SAX, I would do the same in the resolveEntity() method of my handler.

I want to ignore the DTD

I'm processing an XML file with a DTD that I want to ignore. I'm using the the DOMBuilderFactory...have tried setValidating(false) as well as setNamespaceIgnore(true). No luck.

Please don't multi-post.
Although this is the proper forum to post in, I answered your first posting here: http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=721108&messageID=4159916#4159916

Ignore DOCTYPE tag in XML Validation

All,
I am trying to read an XML file using a file adapter with passing using the XSD created out of that XML. In normal scenario it works fines. Problems comes when I cam trying to read the XML file which had the Tag <!DOCTYPE> as shown below on top of the root node.
In this case XML parsing is failing and file adapter is throwing the error.
Any pointers on this.
Many Thanks.

Ramana.

Guys,
There is a small tricky point here. The above operation works in the simple file adapter but dosn't work for Chunk read file adapter.
The InteractionSpec (oracle.tip.adapter.file.outbound.ChunkedInteractionSpec) of the Chunk read file adapter dosn't support this functionality. I guess we have raise an SR, if I am correct.

& sign ignores record on link

I have a report with a column that are links to a form. When a record contains the & sign, it will not pass the value to the form. Instead it gives nothing.
Is there a way to work around this?

Hi,
I'm very interested in this solution ! I've tried also but for me didn' work.
Can you tell me why or check pls. whether my syntax was correct?
So I made a report on two columns (ENT_NAME and ENT_VERSION) with link on ENT_VERSION with following select statement:
select WEBDB.wwv_standard_util.url_encode(WEBDB.wwctx_api.get_proc_path('wwa_app_module.link?_moduleid=2148110787&p_arg_names=ENT_VERSION&p_arg_values='||ENT_VERSION)),
ENT_NAME from MY_SCHEMA.MY_TABLE;
OK, I'm working with WebDB 2.1.
My table is in 'MY_SCHEMA' amd also my created form is in the same schema. I've tried to replace 'WEBDB' with 'MY_SCHEMA' in the select statement but whithout succes. I received following error:
WWV-13010: Unable to describe SQL statement. Please correct it
ORA-01001: ORA-01001: invalid cursor
ORA-00904: ORA-00904: invalid column name
I've read somewhere that this link making is also possible with kind of following select statement:
select 'LINK_STRING_SHOWN',
ENT_NAME from MY_SCHEMA.MY_TABLE;
as I understand this should create a new column with name 'LINK_STRING_SHOWN' in report displaying with a link on this column to MY_FORM of course passing parameter ENT_VERSION from report to form.
Can you tell me whether this second statement is OK or should it work in WebDB because for me it didn't work too :-((
Thanks in advance any help:

Has anyone had the error "The file could not be read due to an error" when selecting ignore or replace image links. The linked images are in Dropbox if that helps.

I am working on a Mac 10.9.5 with Adobe CS6. My files are locally in Dropbox but once we moved files to network and tried opening the AI - the file would not recognize the original folder location. I tried ignoring the missing images but then I receive the error - The file could not be read due to an error." The same error happens when I try replacing the first missing image. I know the problem lies in the images are linked back to my Dropbox but the AI file doesn't care since it won't let me replace or ignore the image links.

Jasion,
Maybe a bit beside the question, but it is always recommended here to open/save from/to own hard disk, and to copy from/to networks and removable media. You may be lucky, at least for a while, but it is better to be safe than sorry.
In addition to the (far greater) risk of file corruption, some issues are mentioned here:

Ignore DTD declaration in incoming XML message

Hi,
I have an issue where I am receiving an incoming XML message which starts with a DTD declaration.
This causes an issue with the XML parser step in the mapping because the parser attempts to resolve the DTD location. However this location is external and the PI server cannot access it.
The location for reference is http://dtd.bibit.com/paymentService_v1.dtd
Therefore I am investigating options to ignore the DTD declaration or removing it altogether prior to the XML parser step.
I would hope I could use either XSLT or Java mapping but do not really know where to start.
Can anyone please provide a method of doing this ? I would prefer to use XSLT but am open to other options.
I have no control over the DTD declaration as it is supplied by a 3rd party application.
Thanks
Colin.
