A Java DTD Parser

DTD parsers for Java seem to be pretty scarce. That's probably because DTD isn't valid XML. At some point, if/when XML Schema becomes widely accepted, no one will need DTD parsers anymore. Until then, you can use this library to parse a DTD.

To use the DTD parser, you just need to create a java.io.Reader for reading the DTD, then create an instance of com.wutka.dtd.DTDParser passing the Reader to the constructor, and call the parse method.

The parser returns a DTD object, which is similar to the Document object in the DOM model.

Tokenize.java, included in the source files, is an example program that reads a DTD and dumps the contents to System.out.
