Android: DOM XML parser that supports FEATURE_SECURE_PROCESSING?

Question

We have a requirement that our XML parser must support XMLConstants.FEATURE_SECURE_PROCESSING.

Unfortunately, the XML parser that is bundled with Android does not. I cannot find any XML packages that conform to this standard - do any exist?

So far:

• Xerces is not supported on Android.
• dom4j does not contain a DocumentBuilder or DocumentBuilderFactory?

Answer 1

'xerces-for-android' did the trick. We can use the SetFeature method from DocumentBuilderFactory of xerces to apply FEATURE_SECURE_PROCESSING.

Had to download source and build the jar from; https://code.google.com/p/xerces-for-android/
