SAXNotRecognisedException when parsing XML

Hi
I have written the following code to verify my XML ( in String form) against xsd schema
When i do setProperty for schemaLanguage or schemaLocation I get an SAXNotRecognisedException.
Could someone please help me out with this !
String schemaString = XMLSchemaGen.getInstance().generateSchema();
SAXParserFactory spf = SAXParserFactory.newInstance();
spf.setNamespaceAware(true);
spf.setValidating(true);
DefaultHandler dh = new DefaultHandler();
SAXParser sp = spf.newSAXParser();
sp.setProperty("http://java.sun.com/xml/jaxp/properties/schemaLanguage",
"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema");
sp.setProperty("http://java.sun.com/xml/jaxp/properties/schemaLocation",
schemaString) ;
Reader inputstream= new StringReader(XMLDocument);
InputSource ips = new InputSource(inputstream);
sp.parse(ips,dh);
System.out.println("Successfully Parsed and Validated");
Thanks

I understand that, I can't figure out how it's poorly formed... I'm inexperienced with DTDs, tell me if you see a problem with this. It's to store accounts for a program:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!ELEMENT Accounts (Level, Level, Level)>
<!ELEMENT Level (Account*)>
<!ATTLIST Level type (admins | gmods | players) #REQUIRED>
<!ELEMENT Account (String, int, int, EmailAddress, InetAddress?)>
<!ATTLIST Account username ID #REQUIRED>
<!ELEMENT String (#PCDATA)>
<!ATTRIBUTE String name CDATA #REQUIRED>
<!ELEMENT int (#PCDATA)>
<!ATTLIST int name CDATA #REQUIRED>

Persisting unexplained errors when parsing XML with schema validation

Hi,
I am trying to parse an XML file including XML schema validation. When I validate my .xml and .xsd in NetBeans 5.5 beta, I get not error. When I parse my XML in Java, I systematically get the following errors no matter what I try:
i) Document root element "SQL_STATEMENT_LIST", must match DOCTYPE root "null".
ii) Document is invalid: no grammar found.
The code I use is the following:
try {
Document document;
DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
factory.setValidating(true);
factory.setNamespaceAware(true);
DocumentBuilder builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();
document = builder.parse( new File(PathToXml) );
My XML is:

Hi,
I found the solution in the following post:
Validate xml with DOM - no grammar found
Sep 17, 2003 10:58 AM
The solution is to add a line of code when parsing:
try {
Document document;
DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
factory.setValidating(true);
factory.setNamespaceAware(true);
factory.setAttribute("http://java.sun.com/xml/jaxp/properties/schemaLanguage", "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema");
DocumentBuilder builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();
document = builder.parse( new File(PathToXml) );
The errors are gone !!!

Flash Player 10 removes HTML encoding in CDATA when parsing XML

I have an application that was written with Flash Professional 8/AS2 and it parses XML for rendering dynamic media content. The XML pulls text with HTML markup out of CDATA sections and places them into an html enabled text field. Everything has worked wonderfully until Flash Player 10.
Now, if we use html escape characters for greater than or less than symbols, they are being decoded by the xml parser.
Here's my example CDATA section:
Here <u>we</u> go: This <node> <works>
when I grab its value using nodeValue or toString, the results are different from Flash Player 9 to 10. Here's what I'm getting:
node.nodeValue (Flash Player 9):
Here <u>we</u> go: This <node> <works>
node.nodeValue (Flash Player 10):
Here <u>we</u> go: This <node> <works>
node.toString (Flash Player 9):
Here <u>we</u> go: This <node> <works>
node.toString (Flash Player 10):
Here <u>we</u> go: This <node> <works>
In Flash 10, if I escape the ampersand, it will work, but this doesn't work in 9. for example, the following works in 10:
<![CDATA[Here <u>we</u> go: This &#60;node&#62; &lt;works&gt;]]>
This all happens before I assign it to a text field. How do I keep the parser from destroying my escaped characters in Flash 10? Do I just need to drop support for Flash Player 9 and go for what works in 10, or is there a solution for both?

I'm not an action script programmer. I'm just trying to fix some code written like 3 years ago. So I think I am wrong about where this problem is coming from.
The original developer actually set up a class to load a remote xml file via sendAndLoad on a LoadVars object. It passes an object with an onData delegate set that passes the event object to an xml parsing method.
the parsing method looks like this:
     private function parseXml(eventObj:Object){
          if(eventObj != undefined)
               try
                    //ExternalInterface.call("logMessage", eventObj.toString());
                    _xmlDoc.parseXML(eventObj.toString());
                    _xmlDoc.loaded = true;
                    _xmlDoc.onLoad(true);
               catch(ex)
                    _xmlDoc.onLoad(false);
          else
               _xmlDoc.onLoad(false);
I added the ExternalInterface call so that I could log the stuff out in javascript (since I'm not sure how to debug this app).
_xmlDoc is defined as: private var _xmlDoc:XML;
The eventObj receives the xml string and then passes it to the parseXML thing. Here's the odd part. In Flash Player 10, if I comment out my ExternalInterface call, the xml string has the escaped character decoded before it gets to the parser.
However, if I uncomment my ExternalInterface call, it logs the escaped strings as i would expect, but the parser gets the correct formatting this time! Suddenly it all works.
I really wish I had an AS2 programmer on campus still....

     Take CREATEDBYUSERLOGINID from XML value 'userLoginId'
where 'requestedByUser' is the input parameter to the stored procedure and 'createdByUserType' is the value from XML.
'userTypeId' is not required to be set in collection.
Now my question is how to put that condition when doing the XML parsing.

Add a projection for "userTypeId" in T4, then use a CASE statement in the SELECT clause :
SELECT DOC_ROWTYPE (

Xmlparser.parse fails when parsing xml with dtd

Has anybody used successfully called xmlparser.parse in PL/SQL
to parse an xml file with a dtd? When I try I get the following
error:
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-20100: Error occurred while parsing: Invalid argument
ORA-06512: at "SYS.XMLPARSER", line 22
ORA-06512: at "SYS.XMLPARSER", line 69
ORA-06512: at line 6
When I remove the dtd reference from the xml file it works.
(I posted this question yesterday but no responses, so I'm
trying again...)

Slow processing when Parsing XML files

Hi
I have written a utility in Java (using JAXP) which parses an .xml file. This xml file
contains references to n number of other xml files. From here I direct the parser to each of these individual xml files where it searches for elements with a particular tag name, lets say 'node'. As in,
<node name= "Parent A">
<entry key="type" value="car"/>....
</node>
<node name= "Parent B">
<entry key="type" value="Truck"/>
</node>
I am collecting all the 'nodes' from these n xml files and then finally building a single xml file which will contain only the 'node' and its attribute 'name' value. As in,
<node name="Parent A"/>
<node name="Parent B"/>
In most cases n is a number greater than 100. Each of these n xml file have LOC exceeding 2 to 3000.
NOW the issue is, the xml parser takes more than an hr to go through just 10 - 15 xml files , collects the 'node', and building a new DOM object which I finally get published using Xml Transformer.
In effect , it beats the whole purpose of writing this utility as no programmer will stick around for an hr to to watch it happen/finish.
Apart from maybe further fine tuning my logic, which I've almost exhusted, is there any 'faster' way of doing the whole thing.
Please reply. Any comment would be greatly appreciated.
I am using JAXP 1.3 specs to parse and build the DOM.

DOM is slow.
Do it yourself using a simple SAX-parser. For all startElement - check if it is a "node", and then write your output!
Xerces is faster than the built in Crimoson SAX-parser in Java.
Parsing with Xerces a 2GHz machine takes manages about 5-6 MB/s of XML files.
Or use STX with Joost - although it's not THAT much faster

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].

How get DOCTYPE name when parsing XML Doc?

My XML document has this:
<!DOCTYPE Users SYSTEM "Users.dtd" []>
So the name of this document's type is "Users", i.e. it is a Users document. However, I cannot figure out how to get that during parsing! I have set the following (and implemented all the correct interfaces):
     pa.setContentHandler( userHandler );
     pa.setDTDHandler( userHandler );
     pa.setEntityResolver( userHandler );
     pa.setErrorHandler( userHandler );My userHandler object is of class: XMLUserHandler (I made it up) that extends DefaultHandler and implements:
DTDHandler, EntityResolver, ErrorHandler, ContentHandler
and overrides all the nec. methods.
What am I missing? how do I get it to return "Users" from:
<!DOCTYPE Users SYSTEM "Users.dtd" []>
or if it was:
<!DOCTYPE MyDumbName SYSTEM "Users.dtd" []>
how can I get it to return "MyDumbName"?
Thank you all for your help in advance!

For anyone wondering, the answer is to use LexicalHandler. However, they made it "hidden" in the sense that setting this property is not as easy as setting the ContentHandler, for example. Also, not every implementation has to recognize the LexicalHandler. You do it this way:
//MY CLASS THAT IMPLEMENTS LexicalHandler INTERFACE
MyLexicalHandler myHandler = new MyLexicalHandler();
myXMLReader.setProperty( "http://xml.org/sax/properties/lexical-handler", myHandler );then just call "parse()" and it will automatically call your lexical handler, assuming it implements that.
The main method in LexicalHandler here (i.e. the one that handles what I was looking for) is:
public void startDTD(String name, String publicId, String systemId) throws SAXException

Too many files open when parsing xml

HI,
I have an application which needs to parse about 13 XML files multiple times.After parsing the XML and creating a DOM I put in values to create an XML message which is then put onto a message queue.I am getting a 'Too many files open' problem.I have run the loop a maximum of 105 times after which i get the problem.However I will need to do this atleast more than 10000 times.Can someone suggest a solution to read the XML, create a DOM and populate the DOM without encountering the above mentioned problem.If I just parse the XML and store the 13 DOMs in a HashMap and use the same, the text values from the previous call get appended resulting in an invalid XML.To overcome this we parse the XML each time a message is to be sent.We also tried increasing the system memory as suggested at some sites but the solution was of no help.
Thanks & Regards

Don't know what this has to do with Web Start but you should make sure that, after parsing a file, the corresponding InputStream is properly closed.

Unable to display tree view; Error when parsing an XML document (Premature end of file.)

Hi folks,
I am using a cascaded mapping in my OM. I have a graphical mapping followed by the Java mapping. It is a flat file to IDOC mapping. Everything works fine in Dev but when I transport the same objects to QA, the Operation mapping though it doesn't fail in ESR testing tool, gives the following message and there is no output generated for the same payload which is successfully tested in DEV. Please advise on what could be the possible reasons.
Unable to display tree view; Error when parsing an XML document (Premature end of file.)

kalyan,
There seems to be an invalid xml payload which causes this error in ESR not generating the tree view. Please find the similar error screenshot and rectify the payload.

Can't parse xml file in jar file when can't connect to web server

My JNLP application throw ConnectException when trying to parse xml during web server offline.
Steps,
1. JNLP application has been launched once and all related jar and xml files are already downloaded to local cache.
2. Then I close web server to test offline launch.I launch the JNLP application using shortcut with -offline parameter.
3. However the JRE internal xml parser tries to connect to web server and report connection error as web server is down now.
My concern is the file is already in the cache, why java still try to connect URL. This error happens in JRE 1.5, but it doesn't happen in JRE 1.6. It only happens when web server is down in JRE 1.5.
I think it may be a bug of JRE, do any one can give me some hint about how to resolve?
Thanks in advance!!
I also moved the code piece to a simple web start example, following it the error and code pieces.

I finally got a temperary work around for this issue, using JRE5 version lower than update 16(not include update 16).
i found Sun modify the URL which returned by XXX.class.getClassLoader().getResource("xml/Test.xml,") after update 15, previous it is related with the cache path, like C:\Users\epenwei\AppData\LocalLow\Sun\Java\Deployment\cache\javaws\http\Dlocalhost\P80\DMEntriView\DMapp\AMNotepad.jar!/xml/Test.xml, but after it changes to network path, like http://localhost/Notepad/app/notepad.jar!/xml/Test.xml. However, the latter address doesn't work in Sun's own class com.sun.org.apache.xerces.internal.impl.XMLEntityManager.setupCurrentEntity if offline.It tried to create new URL then connect to web server. So exception is thrown since web server is down.
if (reader == null) {
stream = xmlInputSource.getByteStream();
if(stream != null && encoding != null)
declaredEncoding = true;
if (stream == null) {
URL location = new URL(expandedSystemId);
URLConnection connect = location.openConnection();
if (connect instanceof HttpURLConnection) {
     setHttpProperties(connect,xmlInputSource);
I am not sure whether it is a Java new bug since I only read the codes and didn't debug Sun code. But I am very curious that I have already specify <j2se version="1.5.0_12" href="http://java.sun.com/products/autodl/j2se" /> to specify update 12 for my jws application. And I also see the Java console display like following
Java Web Start 1.5.0_18
Using JRE version 1.5.0_12 Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM
Why java still uses my latest jre lib to run my application?

Correction:
you need to escape the & character in your XML file by using & instead of using & directly.
