I'm trying to validate xml with ENTITY attributes against a w3c schema using xmllint. While researching my problem I found this behavior:
$ cat foo.xml <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE r SYSTEM "foo.dtd" [ <!NOTATION jpeg PUBLIC "JPG" "JPG"> <!ENTITY foo SYSTEM "foo.jpg" NDATA jpeg> ]> <r entity="foo"/> $ cat foo.dtd <!ELEMENT r EMPTY> <!ATTLIST r entity ENTITY #REQUIRED> $ xmllint --noout --valid foo.xml $ xmllint --noout --dtdvalid foo.dtd foo.xml foo.xml:0: validity error : ENTITY attribute entity reference an unknown entity "foo" Document foo.xml does not validate against foo.dtd Why does it validate with --valid, but not with with --dtdvalid? Ok, back to validating against a schema: $ cat foo.xsd <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";> <xs:element name="r"> <xs:complexType> <xs:attribute name="entity" type="xs:ENTITY"/> </xs:complexType> </xs:element> </xs:schema> $ xmllint --noout --schema foo.xsd foo.xml foo.xml:6: element r: Schemas validity error : Element 'r', attribute 'entity': 'foo' is not a valid value of the atomic type 'xs:ENTITY'. foo.xml fails to validate What have I done wrong? Or should I file a bug?
