Possible XSV bug - failure to report namespace errors with import

XML Spy 3.5 beta 3 complains, but XSV does not - see bug report to XML Spy
and reply below. I think he's right. Changing my namespace refs to be
consistent fixes the XML Spy validation errors.

Thanks

Mark

Your schema has two bugs: 
1. You are using in imported schema namespace 
<http://www.i2group.com/Schemas/2001-01-01/VLVXSchema> 
but trying to address it with a prefix "vlvx" with 
<http://www.i2group.com/Schemas/2001-01-01/VLVXSchemaTypes> 
2. import statement has to use a namespace name and not prefix "vlvx"

Subject: XML Spy v3.5 beta 3 bug: undefined types when using import 
XSV 1.173/1.80 of 2000/10/18 15:54:58 reports NO ERRORS validating the 
following schema. 
XML Spy v3.5 beta 3 reports errors relating to undefined types vlvx:topType 
and vlvx:derivedFromTopType. 
Is this a bug? 
Thanks
