/**
 * Entity resolver resolving all entities registered by modules.
 * Use {@link #getDefault} to get the master instance in system. Any parser working with
 * unknown XML documents should use it to avoid unnecessary Internet
 * connections.
 *
 * 

You can register your own instances via lookup to add to the resolver pool, * for example using an XML file in the format defined by {@link #PUBLIC_ID}, * but for reasons of performance and predictability during startup it is best to provide * the entity (e.g. some DTD you define) as the contents of a file in * the system filesystem, in the /xml/entities/ folder, where the file path * beneath this folder is based on the public ID as follows: *

    *
  1. US-ASCII alphanumeric characters and '_' are left as is. *
  2. Spaces and various punctuation are converted to '_' (one per character). *
  3. Initial '-//' is dropped. *
  4. Final '//EN' is dropped. *
  5. Exactly two forward slashes in a row are converted to one. *
* Thus for example the public ID -//NetBeans//Entity Mapping Registration 1.0//EN * would be looked for in the file /xml/entities/NetBeans/Entity_Mapping_Registration_1_0. * Naturally this only works if you are defining a fixed number of entities. *

It is recommended that the entity file in /xml/entities/ also be given a file * attribute named hint.originalPublicID with a string value giving the public ID. * * @author Petr Kuzel * @since release 3.2 */ public abstract class EntityCatalog implements EntityResolver { /** * DOCTYPE public ID defining grammar used for entity registrations. */ public static final String PUBLIC_ID = "-//NetBeans//Entity Mapping Registration 1.0//EN"; // NOI18N private static EntityCatalog instance = new Forwarder (); /** Get a master entity catalog which can delegate to any others that have * been registered via lookup. */ public static EntityCatalog getDefault() { return instance; } /** * This catalog is forwarding implementation. */ private static class Forwarder extends EntityCatalog { private Lookup.Result result; Forwarder() {} public InputSource resolveEntity(String publicID, String systemID) throws IOException, SAXException { if (result == null) { Lookup.Template temp = new Lookup.Template (EntityCatalog.class); result = Lookup.getDefault ().lookup (temp); } Iterator it = result.allInstances().iterator (); while (it.hasNext ()) { // using resolver's method because EntityCatalog extends EntityResolver EntityCatalog res = (EntityCatalog)it.next (); InputSource is = res.resolveEntity (publicID, systemID); if (is != null) { return is; } } return null; } } }
