According to the Xerces-J docs, if the http://apache.org/xml/features/validation/dynamic feature is false, validation is determined by the state of the http://xml.org/sax/features/validation feature. Try setting http://apache.org/xml/features/validation/dynamic to false (or just don't set it, the default is false), then the validation should work fine.
Ivan -----Original Message----- From: Tung Mansfield [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, May 04, 2001 6:37 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: validation I was trying out the schema validation feature of xerces 1.3.1, but it does not work for me. Can somebody tell me what I am doing wrong? Here is my code: public class TestXML { public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception { String fileName = "c:/temp/test.xml"; FileInputStream stream = new FileInputStream(fileName); DOMParser parser = new DOMParser(); parser.setFeature("http://xml.org/sax/features/validation";, true); parser.setFeature("http://apache.org/xml/features/validation/schema";, true); parser.setFeature("http://apache.org/xml/features/validation/dynamic";, true); parser.setFeature("http://xml.org/sax/features/namespaces";, true); parser.setErrorHandler(new MyErrorHandler()); errHandler = parser.getErrorHandler(); parser.parse(new InputSource(stream)); } } class MyErrorHandler implements ErrorHandler { public void error(SAXParseException exception) throws SAXException { exception.printStackTrace(); } public void warning(SAXParseException exception) throws SAXException { exception.printStackTrace(); } public void fatalError(SAXParseException exception) throws SAXException { exception.printStackTrace(); } } Here are my xml and schema files: <Root xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2000/10/XMLSchema-instance"; xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation='test.xsd'> <A/> <B/> <bad/> </Root> <xsd:schema xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2000/10/XMLSchema"; elementFormDefault="qualified"> <xsd:element name="Root"> <xsd:complexType> <xsd:sequence> <xsd:element name="A"/> <xsd:element name="B"/> </xsd:sequence> </xsd:complexType> </xsd:element> </xsd:schema> When I validate the XML through XMLSpy, it correctly report the error with the "bad" element. But Xerces did not report any error.
