Here is the code for Android's SAXParserFactoryImpl.java:
@Override
public SAXParser newSAXParser() throws
ParserConfigurationException {
if (isValidating()) {
throw new ParserConfigurationException(
"No validating SAXParser implementation
available");
}
try {
return new SAXParserImpl(features);
} catch (Exception ex) {
throw new ParserConfigurationException(ex.toString());
}
}
The Android DOM parser DocumentBuilderFactory has something very
similar. Neither supports validation. You have to find a 3rd party
parser of you want to validate.
