I am trying to use dom4j to validate the xml at http://www.w3schools.com/Schema/schema_example.asp using the xsd from that same page. It fails with the following error:
org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: cvc-elt.1: Cannot find the declaration of element 'shiporder'.
I'm using the following code:
SAXReader reader = new SAXReader();
reader.setValidation(true);
reader.setFeature("http://apache.org/xml/features/validation/schema", true);
reader.setErrorHandler(new XmlErrorHandler());
reader.read(in);
where in is an InputStream and XmlErrorHandler is a simple class that just logs all errors.
I'm using the following xml file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<shiporder orderid="889923"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="test1.xsd">
<orderperson>John Smith</orderperson>
<shipto>
<name>Ola Nordmann</name>
<address>Langgt 23</address>
<city>4000 Stavanger</city>
<country>Norway</country>
</shipto>
<item>
<title>Empire Burlesque</title>
<note>Special Edition</note>
<quantity>1</quantity>
<price>10.90</price>
</item>
<item>
<title>Hide your heart</title>
<quantity>1</quantity>
<price>9.90</price>
</item>
</shiporder>
and the corresponding xsd:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" ?>
<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<xs:simpleType name="stringtype">
<xs:restriction base="xs:string"/>
</xs:simpleType>
<xs:simpleType name="inttype">
<xs:restriction base="xs:positiveInteger"/>
</xs:simpleType>
<xs:simpleType name="dectype">
<xs:restriction base="xs:decimal"/>
</xs:simpleType>
<xs:simpleType name="orderidtype">
<xs:restriction base="xs:string">
<xs:pattern value="[0-9]{6}"/>
</xs:restriction>
</xs:simpleType>
<xs:complexType name="shiptotype">
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="name" type="stringtype"/>
<xs:element name="address" type="stringtype"/>
<xs:element name="city" type="stringtype"/>
<xs:element name="country" type="stringtype"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
<xs:complexType name="itemtype">
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="title" type="stringtype"/>
<xs:element name="note" type="stringtype" minOccurs="0"/>
<xs:element name="quantity" type="inttype"/>
<xs:element name="price" type="dectype"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
<xs:complexType name="shipordertype">
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="orderperson" type="stringtype"/>
<xs:element name="shipto" type="shiptotype"/>
<xs:element name="item" maxOccurs="unbounded" type="itemtype"/>
</xs:sequence>
<xs:attribute name="orderid" type="orderidtype" use="required"/>
</xs:complexType>
<xs:element name="shiporder" type="shipordertype"/>
</xs:schema>
The xsd and xml file are in the same directory. What is the problem?
