Default schema not validating in eclipse

[gavinm]

Eclipse 3.0 M3 Mac OS X oxygen 2.0.4

I select a default schema for code insight (my.dtd) and the validation fails.

If I declare
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="my.dtd"
as attributes of the root element then validation works.

Hi,

The default schema for code insight is used for driving the code completion in cases when a schema or a dtd is not specified in a document.

To have a document validated against a schema or a DTD you should specify that schema or DTD in the document. A DTD can be specified using a DOCTYPE declaration, a W3C XML Schema can be specified using xsi:schemaLocation or xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation attributes where xsi is mapped to the http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance namespace. In the Relax NG case there is no specified way to make an association of a document with a Relax NG schema therefore you can either specify it on the validate with Relax NG action dialog or use the oxygen processing instruction.

See below same sample documents.

DTD specification:

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<!DOCTYPE personnel SYSTEM "personal.dtd">

<personnel>

</personnel>

XML Schema specification:

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<personnel xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

   xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation='personal.xsd'>

</personnel>

Relax NG schema specification:

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<?oxygen RNGSchema="test/rng/test1.rng" type="xml"?>

<foo>

</foo>
