B.46.2 Examples

Here are some examples of using xsdvalidate:

stilts xsdvalidate example-voresource.xml

Validates the given file against whatever schemas it declares. Success is indicated with a non-error exit.

stilts xsdvalidate
       doc=example-voresource.xml
       schemaloc='http://www.ivoa.net/xml/VOResource/v1.0=vor-local.xsd'
       topel='{http://www.ivoa.net/xml/RegistryInterface/v1.0}Resource'
       verbose=true

Validates the named file against whatever schemas it declares, but uses the local file "vor-local.xsd" in the current directory as the schema associated with the "http://www.ivoa.net/xml/VOResource/v1.0" namespace, rather than using any schema location given in the validated file. It also requires that the top-level element has the given URI and local name; if not, the validation will fail. The verbose=true parameter provides some diagnostics to standard output, including indications of which schemas were used and where they were acquired from.
