You can use the combination of the Read() and Compile() methods of the System.Xml.Schema.XmlSchema class in the .NET Framework to programmatically parse and validate W3C XML Schema documents. ________________________________ From: Prasad G S K [mailto:prasadg@a...] Sent: Thu 4/10/2003 7:15 AM To: ht@c...; Simon St.Laurent Cc: xml-dev Subject: RE: XSD validation Thanks a lot. I have another requirement. Is there any way, I validate xsd files programatically? I mean any standard/non-standard API available for XSD validation? In fact, my requerement is like this. I have an application to which XSD files are the input. These xsd files have to be validated and parsed like anyother XML document. I am trying to construct objects out of the XSD file. -----Original Message----- From: ht@c...

Thanks for the plug. It's worth noting that handing a schema document to XSV will check whether or not it conforms to the schema for schema documents, but that's _all_ it will check. If it fails that test, you know you need to fix something. However, it may pass that test, and still not correspond to a conformant schema, because that requires more than just valid syntax. A tool which in my opinion does a pretty thorough job of checking schema documents is IBM's SQC (Schema Quality Checker). There's a pointer to that, and lots of other free and not-so-free tools, on the W3C XML Schema home page [1]. ht [1] http://www.w3.org/XML/Schema.html#Tools -- Henry S.
