Hi Werner, I know the validation feature and it's very good compared to anothers frameworks. But, as far as I know, Castor just does schema-based validation. I need also semantics validation of my XML-based language.
Do you know Checkstyle or PMD (http://checkstyle.sourceforge.net/ and http://pmd.sourceforge.net/) ? I'm making this kind of framework to perform validation just like these but for a XML-based language. It's some kind of rule-based critics system. So, I need to walk in the object tree, visiting the nodes with Visitors that will implement these rules and perform checks on each node. So, if a node violates some rule, I need to feedback the user with the line number and column of this node. That's why I need the two representation of the XML, one abstract just like DOM to make the TreeWalker and another "Java-beans like" to specify the rules more friendly. It seems that Apache XMLBeans have these features, but It is not generating the classes correctly for my XML Schema.
