Ignore XML Validation for JAX-WS clients

I've got a few JAX-WS services I'm trying to consume, but the XML being returned from the service (of which I cannot change) has an invalid DTD (producing the XMLStreamReaderException as there are no white spaces between publicId and systemId). How do I make the clients ignore poorly-formed DTDs?

Is the invalid DTD part of a WSDL? if yes, you could use JAXWS catalog to read the XML locally and then just invoke the service.

You need to download the WSDL, fix it and store it locally. Then, when creating a Service instance read the WSDL from your local store. Update the endpoint property and invoke the service.
