It works, I replied to Bob with the same advise about two months ago:

Well, we added support for this at users requests more that a year ago I think.

Hi Bob,

I haven't actually tried this, but what happens if you use the JAXP property "http://java.sun.com/xml/jaxp/properties/schemaLanguage";, set to "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";? If you set isValidating to true on a SAXParserFactory, and set this property on the SAXParser instance, I believe you should get the behaviour you desire.

Cheers,
Neil

Re: How to use entities with XML Schema?

Nope. If you have a DOCTYPE with either an internal or external DTD, Xerces validates against the DTD.


Officially (officiously?), the folks who designed schemas expect us to

stop

using entities and migrate to some other variety of macro/external-data
reference.


Not their problem, eh?

It's mine. A number of XML editors have started supporting this no concept, raising user expectations this is a valid combination.
