Peter Becker commented on TIKA-185:
-----------------------------------
I believe we (colleagues and I working on Docco) had this problem solved a
while ago, but I don't remember the details. Looking at the old code it seems
we ended up implementing a subclass of SAX's DefaultHandler:
http://tockit.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/tockit/trunk/java/applications/docco/source/org/tockit/docco/documenthandler/SaxTextContentParser.java?revision=1012&view=markup
Here is the calling class:
http://tockit.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/tockit/trunk/java/applications/docco/source/org/tockit/docco/documenthandler/XmlDocumentHandler.java?revision=1013&view=markup
Commit message #667 claims:
"The XML parser now ignores all external references completely -- this seems to
be the only safe way to make sure we don't run into problems."
BTW: there might be other useful stuff in that directory, I haven't really
worked on the code lately and I don't know Tika's capabilities in detail either.
HTH.
> XML files with (unsatisfied) SYSTEM entities can not be extracted

> Key: TIKA-185
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-185
> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: parser
> Affects Versions: 0.2
> Reporter: Andrzej Rusin

> When trying to extract an XPI file (Firefox extenstion, which probably is not
> a best candidate for extract) I got the below exception.
> It was caused by SYSTEM entities refering the chrome:// protocol.
> However, obviously any XML file that contains SYSTEM entities which can not
> be accessed at the time of extraction will not be extracted properly.
> Here is the stack trace:
