Hi Jeff, It's working as designed. The API doc [1] for the SAX InputSource says: " ... standard processing of both byte and character streams is to close them on as part of end-of-parse cleanup, so applications should not attempt to re-use such streams after they have been handed to a parser." If you want to block the parser from closing the stream wrap your InputStream in a filter [2] whose close() method does nothing.
Thanks.
