[oXygen-user] How do I switch off validation of XSDs that are called by an XML document instance [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED]

Hi Sorin,

Thanks for your prompt reply.

A long time ago I asked how to validate a whole set of XSDs.  The response indicated that I should: open a project, import folders (containing the XSDs) into the project, right click on the folder (holding the XSDs) and validate selection.

This is what I did with the XSDs that I am using to validate the huge XML document instance. The validation errors from above only relate to readme files in the directories.  Therefore, I assume that the XSDs are valid. I even removed the readme files and the validation still works.

I have tarred and gzipped the XSDs that I am dealing with. You can download them from: http://asdd.ga.gov.au/asdd/work/epsgSchemas.tar.gz

I then validate the huge XML document instance that is supposed to be valid according to the above mentioned XSDs.  When I do this there are thousands of errors related to the XSDs mentioned above and within the document.

The huge file that I am trying to validate is available at http://asdd.ga.gov.au/asdd/work/GmlDictionaryMetadata.xml

Thanks.


John
