| XMLCATALOG question | XMLCATALOG question 2004-01-14 - By Michael.Giroux@(protected)
I'm using ANT 1.6 and not sure if I have found a bug in ANT <style> processing, or if I have an error in my use of the feature. I've searched the archive, but do not see anything that helps.
JDK: Sun J2SE 1.4.2_03 ANT: 1.6 CLASSPATH: not defined prior to invoking ANT OS: Windows XP Pro
I have a collection of XML documents that contain <!DOCTYPE xxx SYSTEM "../dtd/my.dtd">
To place XML files into subcatalogs, the SYSTEM path information has to be modified: <!DOCTYPE xxx SYSTEM "../dtd/my.dtd"> for first level catalog <!DOCTYPE xxx SYSTEM "../../dtd/my.dtd"> for second level catalog, ...
I thought I could clean this up by using xmlcatalog to resolve the dtd to a fixed location as: <!DOCTYPE xxx PUBLIC "-//my//xxx//EN" "my.dtd"> <!-- note relative path is same in all documents regardless of directory -->
Then in the build.xml: <style ...> <xmlcatalog> <dtd publicId="-//my//xxx/EN" location="${dtd.dir}/my.dtd" /> </xmlcatalog> </style>
When ANT runs this task, I get errors indicating that my.dtd is not found. The path that is displayed for the file not found error is always qualified with the directory of the xml file. The <style> task is resolving the system path information from the DOCTYPE tag and not using the xmlcatalog.
NOTE -- the exact same xmlcatalog is working within an xmlvalidate task in the same build.xml file.
