Ignore DTD specification in scala

This works for me, but it depends on the implementation of the XML parser.

import scala.xml.Elemimport scala.xml.factory.XMLLoaderimport javax.xml.parsers.SAXParserobject MyXML extends XMLLoader[Elem] {  override def parser: SAXParser = {    val f = javax.xml.parsers.SAXParserFactory.newInstance()    f.setNamespaceAware(false)    f.setFeature("http://apache.org/xml/features/disallow-doctype-decl", true);    f.newSAXParser()  }}

See also this question, which is really your question but worded in a hostile way.

The first answer doesn't work when we have incorrect DOCTYPE in xml file.My solution is:

import scala.xml.Elemimport scala.xml.factory.XMLLoaderimport javax.xml.parsers.SAXParserobject XML extends XMLLoader[Elem] {  override def parser: SAXParser = {    val f = javax.xml.parsers.SAXParserFactory.newInstance()    f.setFeature("http://apache.org/xml/features/nonvalidating/load-dtd-grammar", false);    f.setFeature("http://apache.org/xml/features/nonvalidating/load-external-dtd", false);    f.newSAXParser()  }}

First, I'm not an XML expert. So this is just some guessing...

val f = javax.xml.parsers.SAXParserFactory.newInstance()f.setValidating(false)val p = f.newSAXParser()val doc = xml.XML.withSAXParser(p).load(url)
