Java, validate XML with XSD, XML not containing "xmlns:xsi=..."

[killy971]

I am using java to validate an XML file with a DTD, without having the
DVD declaration inside the original file, by setting the doctype
dynamically to a transformer like this :

transformer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.DOCTYPE_S YSTEM, dtd);
transformer.transform(source, new StreamResult(new
StringWriter()));

I would like to know if there is a way to validate an XML file with an
XSD, again, without having the declaration of the xsd file inside the
original XML file, but by declaring it dynamically.

Thank you !

DTD validation is tightly connected to parsing. So you can parse the
result of the transformation with a validating parser.

XSD, again, without having the declaration of the xsd file inside the
original XML file, but by declaring it dynamically.

Have a look at "Chapter 14. Package javax.xml.validation" of "JSR 206
Java™ API for XML Processing (JAXP) 1.3".

In this case I'd transform into a DOMResult and then pass the resulting
node to the schema validation.
