I wrote a simple sax parser about a year ago that just runs through XML files for no other purpose then validation of adherance to our schema. This worked great, but recently I have noticed that it only works if the schema files are in CWD. This was not always the case. I noticed today that if I run it from a CWD where the schema is not located I get a warning about one of the files "included" from the schema.
How can I coax the newer versions of Xerces to look for all of the schema files in the the path specified by EXTERNAL_SCHEMA_PATH rather then just pulling in the top level schema file from there and looking for all of the included files in CWD? Environment: Sun Java SDK 1.4.1 on Linux Xerces-j 2.3.0 The warning I get (/home/richard/dev/java/sax/ was CWD): [Warning] :0:0: File "file:///home/richard/dev/java/sax/sp_complex_types.xsd" not found The entire schema is located in /home/richard/dev/import_spec. The sp.xsd file includes the sp_complex_types.xsd like so: <xsd:schema xmlns:xsd='http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema'> <xsd:include schemaLocation="sp_complex_types.xsd"/> Here is how I set up the parser: private static final String EXTERNAL_SCHEMA_PROPERTY = "http://apache.org/xml/properties/schema/external-noNamespaceSchemaLocation";; public static void main (String args[]) throws Exception { String schema_path = "/home/richard/dev/import_spec/sp.xsd"; XMLReader xr = new SAXParser(); MySAXApp handler = new MySAXApp(); xr.setContentHandler(handler); xr.setErrorHandler(handler); xr.setProperty(EXTERNAL_SCHEMA_PROPERTY, schema_path); xr.setFeature("http://xml.org/sax/features/validation",true); xr.setFeature("http://apache.org/xml/features/validation/schema",true); xr.setFeature("http://apache.org/xml/features/validation/schema-full-checking",true ); ... -- Richard Rowell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
