I am getting an error that it can't resolve the ExtendedElement. I assume I get this because I purposefully didn't supply the extended schema...I only want to be using the standard protocol, and ignore any extensions to the schema. ie. I want to validate the originalschema and ignore additions. yet, I get the following error......
ERROR: cvc-elt.4.2: Cannot resolve 'ava:ExtendedElement' to a type definition for element 'Element'.
I have the following xml <Root xmlns:xsi="http://..../XMLSchema-instance"; xsi:schemaLocation="http://originalschema schema.xsd" xmlns="http://originalschema"; xmlns:ava="http://www.avaya.com";> <Element xsi:type="ava:ExtendedElement"> <data1>some data</:data1> <ava:data2>more data</ava:data2> </Element> </Root>
Notice, the ExtendedElement is in a different namespace. I set the xerces parser to do dynamic validation and give it the location of the one schema I want to validate against.....
parser.setFeature("http://xml.org/sax/features/validation";, true);
parser.setFeature("http://apache.org/xml/features/validation/schema";, true);
parser.setFeature("http://apache.org/xml/features/validation/dynamic";, true);
parser.setProperty("http://apache.org/xml/properties/schema/external-schemaLocation";,
"http://originalschema original.xsd");
Notice, I do not set the location of the avaya schema. I don't want it, and only want to make sure stuff is valid against the originalschema(to maintain compatibility). I ignore anything not from the originalschema namespace to maintain compatibility with other companies too that adhere to the standard...ie I use no proprietary features, only ones in the standard.
Why am I getting the error then? I thought it was xerces was only supposed to validate against a schema it had when the dynamic feature was set? It doesn't have the avaya schema, so shouldn't it just skip it and only validate Element and the nested data inside Element since they are part of the original namespace.
thanks for any help on this, Dean
