I need to find a way to validate a document against xsd which is not referenced from xml. I have taken sample files from w3schools:
xml:
xsd:
I try to validate it usinf xerces like so
However I get errors in case I set "external-noNamespaceSchemaLocation" property to my xsd I get
If I set external-schemaLocation to xsd I get
Im new to this whole xsd thing and so am confused as to how it works
xml:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<note>
<to>Tove</to>
<from>Jani</from>
<heading>Reminder</heading>
<body>Don't forget me this weekend!</body>
</note>
Code:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xs:schema xmlns:xs="[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"[/URL]
targetNamespace="[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.w3schools.com"[/URL]
xmlns="[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.w3schools.com"[/URL]
elementFormDefault="qualified">
<xs:element name="note">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="to" type="xs:string"/>
<xs:element name="from" type="xs:string"/>
<xs:element name="heading" type="xs:string"/>
<xs:element name="body" type="xs:string"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
</xs:schema>I try to validate it usinf xerces like so
Code:
public static void dom4j(){
SAXReader reader = new SAXReader();
try {
reader.setValidation(true);
// specify the schema to use
reader.setProperty("[URL unfurl="true"]http://apache.org/xml/properties/schema/external-noNamespaceSchemaLocation","schema.xsd");[/URL]
// reader.setProperty("[URL unfurl="true"]http://apache.org/xml/properties/schema/external-schemaLocation","schema.xsd");[/URL]
org.dom4j.Document validationDoc = reader.read("file.xml");
org.dom4j.Element root = validationDoc.getRootElement();
} catch (DocumentException e) {
e.printStackTrace(); //To change body of catch statement use File | Settings | File Templates.
} catch (SAXException e) {
e.printStackTrace(); //To change body of catch statement use File | Settings | File Templates.
}
}However I get errors in case I set "external-noNamespaceSchemaLocation" property to my xsd I get
Code:
org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: TargetNamespace.2: Expecting no namespace, but the schema document has a target namespace.If I set external-schemaLocation to xsd I get
Code:
org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: cvc-elt.1: Cannot find the declaration of element 'note'.Im new to this whole xsd thing and so am confused as to how it works
