Re: [docbook-apps] processing a sitemap out of targets.xml data

Hi,

I don't know of a current XML parser that will 
ignore entity references.  Xerces used to have such an option, but that 
seems to have been dropped.  You could supply entity declarations to the 
file being parsed by adding a DOCTYPE declaration, with or without a reference 
to a DTD, and add entity declarations.

Subject: [docbook-apps] processing a 
  sitemap out of targets.xml data

  

Hi, 
I try to generate a sitemap for a complex document 
  structure, so I decided to use the given output structure in my targets.xml to 
  get to the document and foldernames in the right order. 
I simply let run a little sitemap.xsl over it to make 
  another docbook - xml, which all works fine in my editor (oXygen). 
  
But when I start a batch job for it (or even 
  use saxon with a command line, or eclipse), everything breaks, because the 
  parser can't handle the pulled in non-xml data from the referenced 
  .dbs. 
With oXygen, I get a few 
  warnings, that's it. 
My question now: 
  Is there a way to tell the processor to ignore the entity-references (of 
  course it does not work with xinclude either) for this processing? 
  

 Error reported by XML parser: reference to undeclared entity 
  (found "nbsp") 
Transformation 
  failed: Run-time errors were reported

I think this is more a general question and I'm sure there is a 
  workaround for this. 
Thanks in advance 
  for anyl repy. 

Best 
  Regards,
