Hi Monks,

I try to check well-form of the XML file(without entity expanstion, using "NoExpand" option), it is not working what is the problem?

Updated: I need this, if entity is appeared in that XML file, that declaration should be ignored. What is the way to do this? 

 
<!ENTITY e SYSTEM “e.xml”>
For example, &e; should not be replaced with corresponding entity.

I try with below code 

use XML::Parser;
my $xmlfile = do {local $/, <DATA>};
my $parser = XML::Parser->new( ErrorContext => 2, NoExpand => 1 );
eval { $parser->parsefile( $xmlfile ); };
if( $@ ) {
print STDERR "\nERROR in '$xmlfile':\n$@\n";
} else {
print STDERR "'$xmlfile' is well-formed\n";
}
__DATA__
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE test [
<!ENTITY e SYSTEM "a.pl">
]>
