If I read you right, you simply want to validate xml files to a schema?
Yes, I want to validate xml files against a schema, but I only know how
to do it against an xsd schema, and only know how to write an rng schema.
(Or if you could assure me that validating directly from RNG under
Java and point me to some really clear way to do it, that would be
even nicer!)
I have some code (based on work by
http://hsivonen.iki.fi/validator-about/VerifierServlet.jar -- Henri Sivonen
which does rng validation in java.
I'm sure others do too.
Thanks, I'll have a look when I get around to it. Since Sebastian Rahtz
gave me a fix for the trang bug on Ubuntu, it's not so urgent anymore.
(In case others are interested, to save them the search: the trang.jar
file is here <http://www.thaiopensource.com/download/>, in the
trang-version.zip file.)
What is the error reported when you try to validate?
Not a datetime issue by any chance?
The message it gives is:
libgcj failure: gcj linkage error.
Incorrect library ABI version detected. Aborting.
Aborted (core dumped)
If I understand correctly, trang is java compiled to native code. It
seems that there is some kind of dependency problem for trang in the
latest (7.10) version of Ubuntu (and Debian generally?). Using the
traditional method with a java bytecode interpreter + the jar file, as
indicated by Sebastian Rahtz, seems to work out fine. (At least with Sun
java, which is what I use (not that I wouldn't like to be politically
correct, but it seems more reliable than the politically correct gij)).
Anyway, thanks for your help.
David
