[jdom-interest] org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: Relative URI " office.dtd"; can not be resolved without a base URI.

[Norrman Per]

Hi again

My answer must've been confusing. The thing is that
DOMBuilder.build(File) and DOMBuilder.build(URL) both
creates InputStreams and calls DOMBuilder.build(InputStream).
This is why you get the exception.

If you would've used SAXBuilder, supplying a File, an URL or 
a String should all work OK.

Are you sure you tried SAXBuilder?

Hi,

1) Do not use DOMBuilder when building from a file or stream. It is
deprecated and b8.

2) Your XML file refers to DTD, and since you are supplying a stream, there
is no way for the parser to know where to find the DTD. You can a) build
directly from a java.io.File or b) create an org.xml.sax.InputSource on the
URL and build on that.

Hi all,

	I am using the DOMBuilder to build a Document Object from an XML
file which is generated from OpenOffice ".sxw" file (content.xml). I has
JBuilder6 running with both 1.3.1 and 1.4.0 JDK's.

	Whenever I am tring to build the Document Object from the XML file
using the DOMBuilder or SAXBuilder its throwing a SAXParseException.

My code is as follows:

	DOMBuilder domBuilder = new DOMBuilder();
	Document doc = domBuilder.build(new
URL("file:///d:/XMLTest/xml/content.xml"));
	System.out.println("Root Element = " +
doc.getRootElement().getName());
