XMLNS DTD support

Parsing

If the input XML document has an inline DTD, the XMLNS parser reads and uses information in the DTD while parsing, and adds the DTD information to the message tree.

Internal entity definitions in the DTD are used to automatically expand entity references that are encountered in the body of the document.

Attributes that are missing from the input document are automatically supplied with the default value specified in the DTD.

Writing

The XMLNS parser can produce any inline DTD that has been constructed in the message tree.

External DTDs

No support is offered for external DTDs
