Hi Daniel, It is true, that in my case xmlCtxtReadIO is most appropriate. I stumbled upon this, because the difference between _xmlParserCtxt.sax.resolveEntity and xmlSetExternalEntityLoader() are not entirely clear to me.
When using xmlCtxtReadIO, how can I make sure that I can also control the IO which occurs when an external subset or external DTDs are loaded? While I working with this, it seemed like external entities were only being resolved when I had used xmlSetExternalEntityLoader before parsing and that setting ctxt.sax.resolveEntity had no effect whatsoever on the entity resolution. So you are absolutely correct that there is no need for me to use xmlCtxtReadFile. I can very well do with the ReadIO version. I'm just wondering how to get called for resolution of external entities embedded in the document that is being parsed...
