Oliver,

Here is my code fragment:

	try {
            XMLConfiguration config =3D new XMLConfiguration();
            String base =3D System.getProperty("user.dir");
            config.setBasePath(base);
            config.setFileName("DirectorWithSingleAssistant.xml");
            config.load();
            //
            .....
            ...           =20
        }
        catch (Exception e) {
            fail(e.toString());
        }


And my XML:

	<?xml version=3D"1.0" encoding=3D"UTF-8"?>
	<!DOCTYPE Config SYSTEM "../../../yyyy.dtd">



Sorry to bother you, but another problem has come up also:

While to parsing the file, it doesn't seem to recognize structured
properties as advertised in the 'XML - How to'.  For example, with XML:

	<Families>
        <Family name=3D"ES">
            <X a=3D"a" b=3D"b"/>
        </Family>
        <Family name=3D"B">
            <X a=3D"a" b=3D"b"/>
        </Family>
    </Families>

When I iterate:

	for (Iterator iter =3D config.getKeys(); iter.hasNext();) {
           String key =3D (String) iter.next();
           String value =3D config.getString(key);
           System.out.println(key + " =3D " + value);
      }

I get:
=09
Families.Family[@name] =3D ES
Families.Family.X[@a] =3D a
Families.Family.X[@b] =3D b


And I am unable to access, as I'd hoped, via:

Families.Family(0)[@name], etc...

Anything obvious?

Many thanks for your help.
Bill

Could you please provide a code fragment how you setup and load your
XMLConfiguration instance? And full stack traces of exceptions might be
useful, too.

The mentioned fix should be in 1.2. There is a unit test that tests
loading a document that refers to a local DTD. But maybe not all
posibilities are covered?

Oliver
