Bug in Xerces (e.g. in the 1.2.3 we use). By default the real original exception is swallowed by code in the Xerces parser; you have to patch Xerces with a special debug mode on to see what really went wrong. Apparently it is choking on the NOTATION declaration, for some reason. Will attach stack trace of original exception. Looking at Xerces source, it is not at all obvious what is wrong (the source files where the exception occurs are completely uncommented). To reproduce, it suffices to just run the IDE with Ant installed, and examine some folder containing an XML file with the NOTATION decl below. Makes no difference if you use a SAX parser etc., core Xerces declaration-handling code seems to be at fault. Created attachment 621 [details]
