public interface EntityRegistry
34
* Registers the specified URL for the specified public identifier.
37
* This implementation maps {@code PUBLICID}'s to URLs (from which
38
* the resource will be loaded). A common use case for this method is to
39
* register local URLs (possibly computed at runtime by a class loader) for
40
* DTDs and Schemas. This allows the performance advantage of using a local
41
* version without having to ensure every {@code SYSTEM} URI on every
42
* processed XML document is local. This implementation provides only basic
43
* functionality. If more sophisticated features are required, either calling
44
* {@code XMLConfiguration.setDocumentBuilder(DocumentBuilder)} to set a custom
45
* {@code DocumentBuilder} (which also can be initialized with a
46
* custom {@code EntityResolver}) or creating a custom entity resolver
47
* and registering it with the XMLConfiguration is recommended.
50
* @param publicId Public identifier of the Entity to be resolved
51
* @param entityURL The URL to use for reading this Entity
52
* @throws IllegalArgumentException if the public ID is undefined
54
void registerEntityId(String publicId, URL entityURL);
57
* Returns a map with the entity IDs that have been registered using the
58
* {@code registerEntityId()} method.
