So given the DOCTYPE I described: <!DOCTYPE book PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook XML V4.5//EN" "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.5/docbookx.dtd"; [ <!ENTITY % BOOK_ENTITIES SYSTEM "Hibernate_Getting_Started_Guide.ent"> %BOOK_ENTITIES; ]>
I see the following: (1) resolveEntity( "%BOOK_ENTITIES", ... ); (2) resolveEntity( "[dtd]", ... ); I tried adding my "extra" entities during call (1). Essentially, I load the contents of the referenced file (Hibernate_Getting_Started_Guide.ent), prepend my custom entities and wrap that whole thing up in a InputStream. However that does not "work"; it does not seem to pick up my entities. Found that a bit counter-intuitive. If I delay this process until (2), I am not exactly sure what I am supposed to return. As I understand it, I am being asked to resolve the actual DTD file (http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.5/docbookx.dtd)?
