public interface: ExternalSubsetResolver [javadoc | source]

All Implemented Interfaces:
    XMLEntityResolver

All Known Implementing Classes:
    EntityResolver2Wrapper

This interface extends XMLEntityResolver providing a method to resolve external subsets for documents which do not explicitly provide one. The application can register an object that implements this interface with the parser configuration. If registered, it will be queried to locate an external subset when none is provided, even for documents that do not contain DOCTYPE declarations. If the registered external subset resolver does not provide an external subset for a given document, it should return null.

Method from org.apache.xerces.impl.ExternalSubsetResolver Detail:
 public XMLInputSource getExternalSubset(XMLDTDDescription grammarDescription) throws IOException, XNIException

    Locates an external subset for documents which do not explicitly provide one. If no external subset is provided, this method should return null.
