This was a response based on SAX 2.0 _alpha_, not SAX 2.0 (beta/final). See

This is no longer part of SAX 2, but SAX 1. To do this with SAX 2:
XMLReader parser =
new org.apache.xerces.parsers.SAXParser();
The org.sax.XMLReader interface replaces org.sax.Parser (which is now
deprecated).

The Configurable interface from SAX 2.0 alpha is now integrated into the SAX
2.0 XMLReader interface. So you simply need to do:
parser.setFeature("http://xml.org/sax/features/validation";, true);

The rest is OK.

Not any more ;-) For more on SAX2 , check out www.megginson.com/SAX/SAX2
for the API docs. Also, by the way, you are turning on *validation* in this
example, not (just) schema validation. Two separate things... you also turn
on DTD validation as well.
