RE: [xml-dev] xml validation

Hi,

 

that's not a standard feature. I think it's supported in MSXML and Xerces (the latter via a specific property).

Subject: RE: [xml-dev] xml validation

but is there not a parser out there that i can use that will do something like:

Parser p = new Parser();
p.setSchemaLocation(schemaFile.xsd);
p.parse(xmlFile.xml);

and this will ensure that each tag in the xml file has a corresponding definition in the schema, and will also throw an error if the schema defines that the information contained in a tag must be an integer, and in the xml file this information is a string.
This kind of parser cant be that simple to write and i can't affoard to process an xml file unless i know that the information in it is what it is supposed to be.

Thanks again,
Brian.

Hi Guys,
I emailed about this subject yesterday, and got some answers. I have set up
the SAXParser to validate the XML, which is working, but i want to validate
the xml against a particular schema, is there a parser i can set a schema
location and it will ensure the xml file conforms to that schema otherwise
an exception occurs.
I hope i am making some sense!!!

Thanks in advance,
Brian.
