Pbm while importing a DTD

[Former Member]

Hi

I have a strange pbm..XI throws a NULL Exception while activating an external DTD.

The DTD simply contains

[code]

<!ENTITY % SEGMENTS SYSTEM "oagis_segments.dtd">

%SEGMENTS;

<!ENTITY % EXTENSIONS SYSTEM "oagis_extensions.dtd">

%EXTENSIONS;

[/code]

The Error thrown in processing log is

Activation of the change list canceled Check result for External Definition resources | http://xxxx.xx/xi/acc_invoice_receipt03: Document check found errors Cause: Unable to recognize the loaded document as valid DTD Error when parsing DTD document com.sap.aii.utilxi.dtd.api.DtdException: Wrong declaration: " %EXTENSIONS;"

[code]

I have already imported and activated the reference DTDs mentioned..

Any Clues!! Is this an XI bug??

[Former Member]

Had some connection issues..so didn't reply immediately!!

It did turn out to be a bug..We need to have atleast a comment after %Extension; to activate the DTD.Gotto chk if thatz the intended functionality, cos Spy doesn't crib at all.

The issue arises when XI tries to convert the DTD into a WSDL..

Hi Sriram,

I think that the bug will be corrected with SP16 which is hopefully available in the midst of December.

HI Stephan

Thanks for the update on the SP.. I see quite a lot of issues with DTD imports..I have put one more query in another msg!!..

I was wondering if SAP should provide a list of issues to look for in a DTD before importing so that we can readily validate every DTD against this WAtch for list!!

Hi Sriram,

in the documentation you find a hint where you can find a hint where to look for a document that describes known limitations in XSD and DTD handling. However, this document does not describe bugs and when they are/will be fixed.

I do not think that more will be provided. Such a document would be rather difficult to maintain, and probably never could be reliable.

Greetings

Stephan
