<title>SchemaValidate Task</title>

<body>
<h2 id="schemavalidate">SchemaValidate</h2>
<h3>Description</h3>
<p>This <code>schemavalidate</code> task validates XML files described by an XML Schema. The task
extends the <code>XmlValidate</code> task with XSD-specific features.</p>
<ol>
<li>The parser is created validating and namespace aware.</li>
<li>Validation is turned on.</li>
<li>Schema validation is turned on.</li>
<li>Any no-namespace schema URL or file supplied is used as the no-namespace schema.</li>
<li>All nested schema declarations are turned into the list of namespace-url bindings for schema
lookup.</li>
</ol>
<p>Note that nested catalogs are still used for lookup of the URLs given as the sources of schema
documents, so you can still delegate lookup to a catalog, you just need to list all schema URIs and
their URL equivalents.</p>
<p>This task supports the use of nested</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="../Types/xmlcatalog.html"><code><xmlcatalog></code></a> elements</li>
<li><code><schema></code> elements, that bind a namespace URI to a URL or a local
filename.</li>
<li><code><dtd></code> elements which are used to resolve DTDs and entities.</li>
<li><code><attribute></code> elements which are used to set features on the parser. These
can be any number
of <a href="http://www.saxproject.org/apidoc/org/xml/sax/package-summary.html#package_description"
target="_top"><code>http://xml.org/sax/features/</code></a> or other features that your parser
may support.</li>
<li><code><property></code> elements, containing string properties</li>
</ul>
<p>The task only supports SAX2 or later parsers: it is an error to specify a SAX1 parser.</p>

<h4>xmlcatalog</h4>
<p>The <a href="../Types/xmlcatalog.html"><code><xmlcatalog></code></a> element is used to
perform entity resolution.</p>
<h4>attribute</h4>
<p>The <code><attribute></code> element is used to set parser features.<br/>Features usable
with the Xerces parser are defined here: <a href="https://xml.apache.org/xerces-j/features.html"
target="_top">Setting features</a><br/>SAX features are defined

<h3>Examples</h3>
<p>Validate a document against an XML schema. The document does not declare any schema itself, which
is why the <var>noNamespaceFile</var> is needed.</p>
<pre>
<schemavalidate noNamespaceFile="document.xsd"
file="xml/endpiece.xml"/></pre>
<p>Declare a new preset task, <code><validate-soap></code>, that validates XSD and WSDL
documents against the relevant specifications. To validate XSD documents, you also
need <samp>XMLSchema.dtd</samp> and <samp>datatypes.dtd</samp> in the same directory
as <samp>XMLSchema.xsd</samp>, or pointed to via the catalog. All these files can be fetched
from <a href="https://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" target="_top">W3C</a>.</p>
<pre>
<presetdef name="validate-soap">
<schemavalidate>
<schema namespace="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2003/03/addressing"
file="${soap.dir}/ws-addressing.xsd"/>
<schema namespace="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope"
file="${soap.dir}/soap12.xsd"/>
<schema namespace="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/"
file="${soap.dir}/wsdl.xsd"/>
<schema namespace="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
file="${soap.dir}/XMLSchema.xsd"/>
</schemavalidate>
</presetdef></pre>
<p>Use the preset task defined above to validate an XML Schema document.</p>
<pre><validate-soap file="xml/test.xsd"/></pre>
