Re: Validation of XML of WSDL 2.0 drafts

Hugo,

My Ant script does XML validation, but only checks well-formedness, not 
DTD validation.

I am very interested in doing schema validation. I can provide a schema 
for the Z namespace. We'll need to modify the xmlspec schema to allow that 
namespace.

Validation of XML of WSDL 2.0 drafts






Hi Arthur.

I have fixed the mark-up in Part 1 as it wasn't valid:

    
http://dev.w3.org/cvsweb/2002/ws/desc/wsdl20/wsdl20.xml.diff?r1=1.162&r2=1.164&f=h


In order to have this happen automatically again in the build process,
I've updated the DTD to include your Z notation:

    
http://dev.w3.org/cvsweb/2002/ws/desc/wsdl20/xmlspec.dtd.diff?r1=1.5&r2=1.6&f=h


I've done it in a quick and dirty way, but it basically works and I
now get useful information out of the DTD validation. Please validate
against it when you do edits so that the spec stays in a good shape.

Since obviously DTDs are not well adapted to the flexibility of
namespaces, I'm not opposed to something like schema validation if you
feel like it.

Cheers,

Hugo
