Obtain a new instance of a DocumentBuilderFactory. This static method creates a new factory instance. This method uses the following ordered lookup procedure to determine the DocumentBuilderFactory implementation class to load: 
    

  •  Use the javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory system property. 
    • 

  • 

     Use the configuration file "jaxp.properties". The file is in standard Properties format and typically located in the conf directory of the Java installation. It contains the fully qualified name of the implementation class with the key being the system property defined above. 
    
The jaxp.properties file is read only once by the JAXP implementation
and its values are then cached for future use.  If the file does not exist
when the first attempt is made to read from it, no further attempts are
made to check for its existence.  It is not possible to change the value
of any property in jaxp.properties after it has been read for the first time.

    • 

  • 

     Use the service-provider loading facility, defined by the ServiceLoader class, to attempt to locate and load an implementation of the service using the default loading mechanism: the service-provider loading facility will use the current thread's context class loader to attempt to load the service. If the context class loader is null, the system class loader will be used. 
    • 

  • 

     Otherwise, the system-default implementation is returned. 
    • 



 Once an application has obtained a reference to a DocumentBuilderFactory it can use the factory to configure and obtain parser instances.

Set the Schema to be used by parsers created from this factory. 
 When a Schema is non-null, a parser will use a validator created from it to validate documents before it passes information down to the application. 
When errors are found by the validator, the parser is responsible to report them to the user-specified ErrorHandler (or if the error handler is not set, ignore them or throw them), just like any other errors found by the parser itself. In other words, if the user-specified ErrorHandler is set, it must receive those errors, and if not, they must be treated according to the implementation specific default error handling rules. 

A validator may modify the outcome of a parse (for example by
adding default values that were missing in documents), and a parser
is responsible to make sure that the application will receive
modified DOM trees.

 Initially, null is set as the Schema. 
 This processing will take effect even if the isValidating() method returns false. 
It is an error to use the http://java.sun.com/xml/jaxp/properties/schemaSource property and/or the http://java.sun.com/xml/jaxp/properties/schemaLanguage property in conjunction with a Schema object. Such configuration will cause a ParserConfigurationException exception when the newDocumentBuilder() is invoked. 
Note for implementors


 A parser must be able to work with any Schema implementation. However, parsers and schemas are allowed to use implementation-specific custom mechanisms as long as they yield the result described in the specification.

  • schema – Schema to use or null to remove a schema.
