Re: [docbook-apps] validation errors in targets.xml

Hi Benno,

I don't think it is possible to validate a target 
database.  See this previous mail for the reasons:

 

http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/docbook-apps/200611/msg00135.html

 

A missing .db file is actually a well-formed 
error.  Oxygen's Check Welformedness option will report such errors, as 
will xmllint without --validate.

Subject: [docbook-apps] validation errors 
  in targets.xml

  

Hello,
  
I alway get hundreds of validation errors, when i validate big target 
  database documents against the targetdatabase.dtd because in the pulled in 
  *.db files many undeclared elements, attributes and entities are found.

  
This has no effect on the successful outcome of the document/olink 
  generation, but it makes it difficult to find an real error, for example a 
  missing *.db file or something.

  
I use oXygen 11.2 for validation, but I had the same problem with 
  xmlmind.

  

  
Is there a solution for this problem or do I have to extend the dtd 
  myself?

  

  
Thanks,

  
Benno
