I have a file "default.cst" and an external entity "mgr.dtd".

The XML::Parser built by me is able to parse "default.cst" onlt in 'standalone' mode, but if a refernce is made to external entity, then i get an error, as below.

Log:

-----

error in processing external entity reference at line 2, column 59, byte 82:

<?xml version="1.0" ?>

<!DOCTYPE group SYSTEM "/opt/hpcmgr/etc/templates/mgr.dtd">

--------------

I see that somehow the XML::Parser built by me is unable to parse if there is a refernce to external entity. But, drilling down further -- I found that XML::Parser requires "libexpat.<xx>" - a library used in parsing. The "libexpat" library has to be built from the "expat-2.0.1" source, which i downloaded and built.

During the make phase of "XML-Parser Module", i see a lot of warnings...
