It should be possible to set base URI for resolving relative DTD and external entities in XML requests [SWS-618]

Mikael Ståldal opened SWS-618 and commented

When using DomPoxMessageFactory and get an incoming request with a DOCTYPE with DTD reference like this:

<!DOCTYPE some_request SYSTEM 'integration.dtd'>
it tries to read a file "integration.dtd" in current directory from the file system on the server. That's not very clever default behavior, and it is difficult to change. It would be more useful if it reads it from classpath (WEB-INF/classes).
