EntityResolver implementation that attempts to resolve schema URLs into local classpath resources using a set of mappings files.

By default, this class will look for mapping files in the classpath using the pattern: META-INF/spring.schemas allowing for multiple files to exist on the classpath at any one time.

The format of META-INF/spring.schemas is a properties file where each line should be of the form systemId=schema-location where schema-location should also be a schema file in the classpath. Since systemId is commonly a URL, one must be careful to escape any ':' characters which are treated as delimiters in properties files.

The pattern for the mapping files can be overridden using the PluggableSchemaResolver(ClassLoader, String) constructor.

public InputSource resolveEntity(String publicId, String systemId) throws 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.

Parameters
publicId:String

The public identifier of the external entity being referenced, or null if none was supplied.

systemId:String

The system identifier of the external entity being referenced.

Returns:InputSource

An InputSource object describing the new input source, or null to request that the parser open a regular URI connection to the system identifier.

Exceptions
IOException:
A Java-specific IO exception, possibly the result of creating a new InputStream or Reader for the InputSource.
toStringback to summary
public String toString()

Overrides java.lang.Object.toString.

Doc from java.lang.Object.toString.

Returns a string representation of the object. Satisfying this method's contract implies a non-null result must be returned.

Returns:String

a string representation of the object
