Validate against Schema and enter Error tags

[Martin Eckart]

Hi guys,

I have an XML Schema and I am validation many XML files against the schema.
If successful, the files get transferred to another location. If not, then I
would like to add an error tag right after the corresponding XmlNode (in the
next line) specifying the error message.
I am currently validating using an XMLReader with XMLReaderSettings. I have
tried with a EventHandler for the Validation Errors or Warnings, but don't
get the current node I am in here. Another try was using the catch block to
get the element and/or attribute name of the error node. This works, but
then the reader does not advance anymore, since I had an exception...

Is there anyone out there who might be able to help here?

thanks,
Martin

Thanks for the reply.
Is there also the possbility to get a pointer to the current node from the
XmlReader class? I would then store those pointers in a collection and after
having parsed the whole Xml file walk through the entries in my collection
and add <resulttags with detailed information right after the Nodes
specified in my collection.

Thanks,
Martin

XmlNode is an abstract class for the .NET DOM implementation. XmlReader is
independent of the DOM implementation, it is a fast, forwards only pull
parser. If you are using XmlReader and a ValidationEventHandler then you
can cast the sender object to the XmlReader and access the reader
properties like NodeType or Name.

Each XmlAttribute node has a property OwnerElement:
