XML与DTD

DTD是对XML结构的描述，XML的书写方式必须遵循DTD描述的规则

Entity.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="gb2312"?>
<!DOCTYPE EntityModel SYSTEM "Entity.dtd">
<EntityModel>
	<includes>
		<file name="" />
	</includes>
	<Entity name="Role" label="角色" description="角色">
		<Field name="RoleName" type="String" label="角色名称" notnull="no" description="角色名称"/>
		<Field name="RoleID" type="Integer" label="角色编号" notnull="no" description="角色编号"/>
	</Entity>
</EntityModel>

Entity.dtd

<pre name="code" class="html"><?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!ELEMENT EntityModel (includes?, Entity*)>		//? 表示出现0次或一次；*表示0次或多次
<!ATTLIST EntityModel
	name  CDATA #IMPLIED	//表示name是非必需的
	>
<!ELEMENT includes (file+)>	 //file+ 表示file至少出现一次
<!ELEMENT file EMPTY>	//EMPTY表示可以以<file />形式出现
<!ATTLIST file		//ATTLIST描述file的属性相关信息
	name CDATA #REQUIRED   //name是必须的属性
	>
<!ELEMENT Entity (Field|Ref)*>  //节点Entity的子节点只能出现Field或Ref属性
<!ATTLIST Entity
	name CDATA #REQUIRED
	label CDATA #IMPLIED
	description CDATA #IMPLIED
	>

<!ELEMENT Field EMPTY>
<!ATTLIST Field
