Re: Any public source code for an XML Schema (12/17/99) checker out t here?

There is a schema checker implemented in the Schematron assertion language
available at
http://www.ascc.net/xml/resource/schematron/schematron.html

The actual schema is at
http://www.ascc.net/xml/resource/schematron/XMLSchema/XMLSchematron.xml

You can see an example of using it at
http://www.ascc.net/xml/resource/schematron/XMLSchema/schematron-frame.html


The advantages are:
    * validates all structural constraints, not just the ones specifiable
using DTDs or XML Schemas
    * presents validation errors grouped by class, so that you can work
through one class of errors at a time
    * trivially customizable

It requires an XSL processor and a Schematron implementation such as
schematron-report (available from the site above).
