I don't know if this is any help, but you can tell your DOMParser where to
find your schema by setting the following before you parse your document:
setFeature("http://xml.org/sax/features/validation";, true);
setFeature("http://apache.org/xml/features/validation/schema";, true);
setProperty("http://apache.org/xml/properties/schema/external-noNamespaceSch
emaLocation", "my.xsd");
If you have already loaded your schema into a DOM (and so don't want to
provide a location) you can create an EntityResolver and add it via
setEntityResolver. Then when it needs the schema the DOMParser will call
your EntityResolver's resolveEntity method. You can then provide the schema
from its DOM, or wherever you want.

Subject: Basic Schema Validation..HELP!
I am converting a webservice from a MS COM+ based application to Java. Out
public interface(s) methods are all defined with an argument of String.
That String is (or should be) a valid XML document. What I want to do is
load this string into a DOM document (or SAX could be fine) and validate it
against a given Schema document....However my incoming document (string)
does NOT have the xsi:location attribute...What I want to do is decide at
RUN time which Schema to validate this "document" against....load the
schema, load the document and call some method to say "validate this
document against this schema"....Does such a thing exist?
thanks
Doug
