Validating with embedded schema

[Andreas Håkansson]

Hiya,

Is it possible to add a schema as an "embedded resource" in a project and use
that schema to validate some xml? And how about if thet schema references
another schema which has also been embedded?

Any ideas? Examples?

Nevermind, figured it out after some reading. For those who are interrested
in
how I solved it

(1) Add you schema(s) to the project
(2) Set the "Build Action" to "Embedded Resource" on the schema(s)
(3) Get the schema as a stream by doing

Stream schemaStream =

this.GetType().Assembly.GetManifestResourceStream( "CryptoKeys.License.xsd");

(4) Add the schema(s) to you validator by doing the following

validator.Schemas.Add(XmlSchema.Read(schemaStream, null));

If you have more the one schema, i.e. you have imported one schema
into the other.
Then make sure you first add the imported schema, or you'll get an
error.

(5) Validate =)
