hej,

Before building a document (JDOM beta10) I set the expand entities method to
false (ie. "builder.setExpandEntities(false);" ) so the entities don't
disappear upon parsing. After building I want to be able to access the
values of entities defined to the DOCTYPE node. Haven't found a way on the
net. For example, if the XML document looks like:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE entityload SYSTEM "entity_load.dtd" [

  <!ENTITY DM_DFG "tdi710">
]>
<entityload/>

and I want to pull the value of DM_DFG. How is this done? Can this be done
in JDOM? In the W3C DOM DocType object there is a getEntities method which
looks like it might be able to access entities. I tried outputting the JDOM
document to a W3C document but the entities don't seem to follow.
