Something might be worth clarifying in
http://jmvanel.free.fr/xsd/valid-sitemap.txt
First of all, it's always a good idea to say which version of Xerces you
are using. I'm assuming it's the latest one 2.2.1.
> Xerces gives on sitemap.xsd about 10 error messages that maybe are not
relevant.
I guess you are referring to the "cos-nonambig" ones. But as you said,

So some content modes in your schema *are* ambiguous, which is why Xerces
reports those errors. "cos-nonambig" is the official error code for such
kinds of errors. It's defined in the schema structure spec.
> It didn't find the inner complexType having a name.
I do see an error if I put the name attribute back on line 330. Are you
sure you weren't using the corrected schema when running Xerces?

I guess you had
<group ref="..." maxOccurs="0"/>
It's invalid not because maxOccurs=0, but because minOccurs = 1 < maxOccurs
= 0. (Note that the default value of minOccurs is 1.) (Also note that
minOccurs=maxOccurs=0 is allowed, which doesn't correspond to any particle
at all.)
So as you can see, Xerces is correct in every aspect. And the error code it
gives at the beginning of each error message is a good hint to find out
what caused the error.

Schema validation

Hello
I enhanced the Xerces sample :
samples/sax/Counter.java .
It does XML Schema validation against 1 or more external Schema(s)
(i. e. not in <?xml-styleshhet ).
The source is here:
http://jmvanel.free.fr/xsd/Counter.java
The .class is also here in same directory.
More details here:
