public InputSource resolveEntity(String publicId, String systemId) throws SAXException, IOException

Implements org.xml.sax.EntityResolver.resolveEntity.

Doc from org.xml.sax.EntityResolver.resolveEntity.

Allow the application to resolve external entities.

The parser will call this method before opening any external entity except the top-level document entity. Such entities include the external DTD subset and external parameter entities referenced within the DTD (in either case, only if the parser reads external parameter entities), and external general entities referenced within the document element (if the parser reads external general entities). The application may request that the parser locate the entity itself, that it use an alternative URI, or that it use data provided by the application (as a character or byte input stream).

Application writers can use this method to redirect external system identifiers to secure and/or local URIs, to look up public identifiers in a catalogue, or to read an entity from a database or other input source (including, for example, a dialog box). Neither XML nor SAX specifies a preferred policy for using public or system IDs to resolve resources. However, SAX specifies how to interpret any InputSource returned by this method, and that if none is returned, then the system ID will be dereferenced as a URL.

If the system identifier is a URL, the SAX parser must resolve it fully before reporting it to the application.

Exceptions
SAXException:
Any SAX exception, possibly wrapping another exception.
IOException:
A Java-specific IO exception, possibly the result of creating a new InputStream or Reader for the InputSource.
