Hey Chris
Sorry for the delay answering this - I wanted to prove to myself this
approach works before answering.
The trick is to use VerifierFilter from MSV which is-a XMLFilter so that
validation can be done at the same time as dom4j parsing. The filter can be
installed using this code...
VerifierFilter filter = verifier.getVerifierFilter();
SAXReader reader = new SAXReader();
reader.setXMLFilter( filter );
To test this works I've added a new sample program to CVS at
dom4j/src/samples/validate/JARVDemo2.java that uses a VerifierFilter to
validate the XML against any schema (DTD, RelaxNG, XML Schema etc.) while
parsing a dom4j document. Works a treat.
This technique is described (from a SAX perspective) in the JARV.html
document in the MSV distribution.

Subject: Re: [dom4j-user] Problems validating with schema
Is there any way to perform Validation this way while reading in the
document from an xml file? I looked at SAXReader and I didn't see any way
to implement the ValidatorHandler. Am I just missing something or do I
really have to parse in the XML document in full and then write it out to
validate it by a schema? This seems a bit much... TIA!
