Can't include entities in web.xml

           Summary: Can't include entities in web.xml
           Product: Tomcat 4
           Version: Unknown
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Catalina
        AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


Entities with relative paths are not resolved in the web.xml. I.e.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE web-app
  PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN"
  "http://java.sun.com/j2ee/dtds/web-app_2_3.dtd";
[
<!ENTITY webinc PUBLIC "webinc" "webinc.xml">
]
>
<web-app>
 &webinc;

fails with 

Exception initializing TldLocationsCache: XML parsing error on file /WEB-
INF/web.xml: (line 6, col -1): Relative URI "webinc.xml"; can not be resolved 
without a base URI.

The reason for this is that Digester.parse(File) is called in 
o.a.c.startup.Catalina - this method does not set the system id of the 
InputSource, so relative paths can't be resolved.

I suggest using Digester.parse(InputSource) where you'd set *BOTH* the stream 
*AND* the system ID (in form of "file://" + file.getAbsolutePath()) properties 
of the input source to solve the problem.
