Flat Schema validation

I'd like to know if there is support in .NET to
somehow "flatten" a nested XML schema.
Here is the situation:
Currently I have code that can validate nested XML
against a schema. The XML is generated by using a DataSet.
Now I want to generate the XML as non-nested from the
DataSet by setting the flag Nested to false in the
Relation objects but still be able to validate it using
the same "nested" schema. So I'm hoping there is a way to
do a similar trick with a schema, load it and set som
nested flag to false and then be able to use it for
validation.

I don't know of any automatic option, but if you control the schema then you
need to make sure that all elements that were previously only defined tp be
nested elements are also valid as top-level elements. If you're using the
DataSet to generate the XML in the first place, can you extract some
"reference data" and extract the Schema you validate against from the
DataSet and then add the necessary top-level elements?

Hi, When validating an XML instance, sometimes the schema is not enough to expression the validation rules. Additional validation rules may be expressed in an application-specific way. For example, using XPath or Java method. So is there a concept and/or standard for post-schema validation or application validation? Is there any hook in XML standards that allow me to hook up with my customized validation? Additionally and more...

I would like to perform a 2-pass XML reading from a stream. Once using the Validating reader, just to confirm the validity against the schema, and next time to do a reading to extract the data. Actually, second time I do a deserialization, the data from XML is fed directly to an object. The problem I am experiencing is the error at the second reading attempt, and error description implies that reader is winded to the end of the XML and...

There's an XML message I have, that has no namespace information. Then there is a XSD schema that is must validate against, but this has a targetNamespace and xmlns of "http://www.wbf.org/xml/b2mml-v02". How do I get this XML to validate against the Schema in C#? If I use XmlSpy (2005 home edition) to perform the validation, it first inserts namespace and schema information into the XML before validating. Validation then seems to work if...

Hi, I am trying to hook into Yellow Freight's rating webservice. Below is the wsdl. When i try and create a proxy file with wsdl.exe i get the following errors, see below. Also, when i reference this wsdl in .NET it seems to do it fine, yet there are no objects to reference except RateQuoteBeanService. In the WSDL it looks like there should be getRateQuote, and QUOTEREQUEST, etc.

Hi... I've been trying the .Validate() method on the XmlDocument to validate some xml against a schema, but one thing I noted was that unless the document explicitly declares the schema as a default namespace, Validate() just lets it slide through as a success. Is there a way to Validate() either a) mandating against a particular schema, or at the very least b) supplying a default namespace to be used even when not explicitly declared?
