RE: org.apache.xmlbeans.XmlException: Element is not valid

[Wing Yew Poon]

Ramesh,
assuming that "Template.xsd" is the xsd file for your schema, you are
parsing the Template schema (thus a schema instance) rather than a
Template instance, as Jacob suspected. What you want to do is to parse
an xml instance of your schema, not the schema.
For future reference, you should post user questions to the user list
(user@xmlbeans.apache.org) rather than this list, which is for
development-related matters.

Hi Jacob,

Thanks for the reply. I am new to xmlbeans. Please find the xsd I used.

I generated the jar using scomp.
 
The code is  like this
 
        TemplateDocument poDoc = null;
        File xsdFile = new File("Template.xsd");
        try
        {
            // Bind the incoming XML to an XMLBeans type.
            poDoc = TemplateDocument.Factory.parse (xsdFile);
        } catch (XmlException e)
        {
            e.printStackTrace();
        } catch (IOException e)
        {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

        Hi Ramesh,
        This looks like it might be an expected error.
        
        My guess is that when you call:
        
        TemplateDocument.Factory.parse()
        
        you are passing content that starts with
        <xsd:schema ... />
        rather than
        <Template ... />
        
        Can you confirm this is the case?
