I use a EntityResolver-derived class. It has a single overload of resolveEntity() that compares the requested ids against the name of my DTDs. On a match, it polls the Windows registry for their location.

How can I specify a local path (or paths) that my application should search for schemas? For example, say I have "my_file.xml" which I want to validate against "my_schema.xsd", but the two files aren't in the same location. In fact, either file (xml or xsd) can be in an arbitrary directory. A typical example I can think of is as follows: my application uses XML for per-user config/data files (E.g. $HOME/.my_app/config.xml, $HOME/.my_app/data.xml). Rather than install the schemas in each user's home directory, I'd like to just have one copy in the program config directory (e.g. /etc/my_app/config.xsd, /etc/my_app/data.xsd). Now keep in mind that different people will inevitably install my application in different locations (e.g. /usr versus /usr/local). So how can I specify (perhaps a build time) the paths that should be checked for schemas?
