This tip is a simple application that demonstrates the possibilities of your StAX parser by setting the XMLInputFactory properties to true/false. The StAX parser tested in this example is the BEA and JCP parser.

import javax.xml.stream.*;public class XMLInputFactoryProperties{     public static void main(String[] args)        {        String[] properties={"javax.xml.stream.isValidating",                   "javax.xml.stream.isNamespaceAware",                   "javax.xml.stream.isCoalescing","javax.xml.stream.isReplacingEntityReferences",                   "javax.xml.stream.isSupportingExternalEntities","javax.xml.stream.supportDTD"};        XMLInputFactory XMLif=null;                      System.setProperty("javax.xml.stream.XMLInputFactory","com.bea.xml.stream.MXParserFactory");        //get an XMLInputFactory instance        XMLif=XMLInputFactory.newInstance();                        //testing        System.out.println("Case 1:");        for(int i=0;i
