It turns out that there were some '%' characters in the body of the build.xml which
caused the XML parser to fail. Technically, within an XML document's body, the '%'
character has no significance and does not need to be escaped. Nonetheless, since the
parser was having troubles with the '%' characters, I replaced them with the escaped
hexadecimal equivalent (%), and everything is working fine now.

Subject: entity reference
Greetings,
Has anyone seen this error when including entity references in their Ant buildfiles?
"Parameter entity references must not appear within markup declarations in the
internal DTD subset."
What I have is:
=====================
===== build.xml =====
=====================
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE project [
<!ENTITY deploy SYSTEM "file:./deploy.xml">
]>
<project name="Project Name" default="compile" basedir=".">
...
&deploy;
<target name="deploy">
...
</target>
...
</project>
======================
===== deploy.xml =====
======================
<target name="deploy-dev">
...
</target>
<target name="deploy-prod">
...
</target>
-----
This works fine under most circumstances (e.g., running Ant from command-line on
Win/Unix, invoking the Ant buildfile from org.apache.tools.ant.Project, etc.), but
sometimes fails under other circumstances.
Thanks,
Jeff
