Java - xsl transformation -DTD as entity resolver Premature end of file

Question

Java - spring - xsl transformation with dtd as entity resolver.

I have a following method

 private Source resolveDTDEntity(Reader input, final String dtdName) throws ParserConfigurationException, SAXException, IOException {

        DocumentBuilderFactory docBuilderFactory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
        docBuilderFactory.setValidating(false);
        docBuilderFactory.setNamespaceAware(true);

        DocumentBuilder docBuilder = docBuilderFactory.newDocumentBuilder();

        //Satisfying dtd dependency
        docBuilder.setEntityResolver(new EntityResolver() {
            public InputSource resolveEntity(String publicId, String systemId) throws SAXException, IOException {
                if (systemId.contains(dtdName)) {
                    InputStream dtdStream = XslRdcSourceDocTransformer.class
                            .getResourceAsStream("/dtds/" + dtdName);
                    return new InputSource(dtdStream);
                } else {
                    return null;
                }
            }
        });

        //Exception on following line
        return new DOMSource(docBuilder.parse(new ReaderInputStream(input))); 
    }

I gets following exception

Exception: Premature end of file

Answer 1

This error occured "tackTrace: org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: Premature end of file." cuz i was reading multiple xml files from disk and one of them was empty which cause of this error.

i used following statement

docBuilder.parse(new InputSource(reader))
