I found that Xerces-J provides non-DOM classes CoreDocumentImpl and
DocumentTypeImpl for this.
I tried this code:
CoreDocumentImpl document = (CoreDocumentImpl)docBuilder.newDocument();
DocumentTypeImpl docType =
(DocumentTypeImpl)document.createDocumentType("root", null, null);
docType.setInternalSubset("<!ENTITY x 'hello'>");
Element root = document.createElement("root");
Element a = document.createElement("a");
root.appendChild(a);
EntityReference x = document.createEntityReference("x");
a.appendChild(x);
a.appendChild(document.createTextNode(" world"));
But when I serialize the Document object I don't get internal DTD
subset in the output.
Unfortunately, it's mentioned in the Java docs for CoreDocumentImpl
and DocumentTypeImpl, "Usage of this class is not supported. It may be
altered or removed at any time."
I'll appreciate, how to approach this problem correctly with Xerces-J.
