Strange validating XML by DTD in Eclipse [message #1476931]

Hello

I have XML document

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE error[
<!ELEMENT error (mammal, weight, age) >
]>  
<error>
 <mammal>elephant</mammal>
 <weight>6996</weight>
 <age>86</age>
</error>

It's not valid XML.
But if I click Validate in Eclipse I've got message something like "Document is Correct".
In Notepad++, online validators and any other editor I've got error.

What does the cause of such behavior of Eclipse? Thanks.

What error are you getting elsewhere, and exactly what are you being told in Eclipse?

Eclipse (any version, any name):
The validation completed with no errors or warnings.

Notepad++ with XML Tools:
Validation of current file using DTD:
ERROR: No declaration for element mammal
ERROR: No declaration for element weight
ERROR: No declaration for element age

xmlvalidation dot com:
Errors in the XML document:
6: 10 Element type "mammal" must be declared.
7: 10 Element type "weight" must be declared.
8: 7 Element type "age" must be declared.
