Examples

The following example validates using a schema stored in the XmlSchemaSet.

#using <System.Xml.dll>

using namespace System;
using namespace System::Xml;
using namespace System::Xml::Schema;
using namespace System::IO;

// Display any validation errors.
static void ValidationCallBack( Object^ /*sender*/, ValidationEventArgs^ e )
{
   Console::WriteLine( L"Validation Error:\n   {0}", e->Message );
   Console::WriteLine();
}

int main()
{
   // Create the XmlSchemaSet class.
   XmlSchemaSet^ sc = gcnew XmlSchemaSet;

   // Add the schema to the collection.
   sc->Add( L"urn:bookstore-schema", L"books.xsd" );

   // Set the validation settings.
   XmlReaderSettings^ settings = gcnew XmlReaderSettings;
   settings->ValidationType = ValidationType::Schema;
   settings->Schemas = sc;
   settings->ValidationEventHandler += gcnew ValidationEventHandler(ValidationCallBack);

   // Create the XmlReader object.
   XmlReader^ reader = XmlReader::Create( L"booksSchemaFail.xml", settings );

   // Parse the file. 
   while ( reader->Read() )
      ;

   return 1;
}
// The example displays output like the following:
//   Validation Error: 
//        The element 'book' in namespace 'urn:bookstore-schema' has invalid child element 'author' 
//        in namespace 'urn:bookstore-schema'. List of possible elements expected: 'title' in 
//        namespace 'urn:bookstore-schema'.
//
//    Validation Error: 
//       The element 'author' in namespace 'urn:bookstore-schema' has invalid child element 'name' 
//       in namespace 'urn:bookstore-schema'. List of possible elements expected: 'first-name' in 
//       namespace 'urn:bookstore-schema'.

Remarks

The following table describes the ValidationType values.

Note

The Auto and XDR enumeration values are obsolete in .NET Framework version 2.0.

ValidationType Description
DTD Validation is performed using a document type definition (DTD). Note: The DtdProcessing property must also be set to Parse.
None The XmlReader does not validate data, or perform any type assignment.
Schema Validation and type assignment is performed using an XML Schema definition language (XSD) schema. The reader accesses the XML Schema using the following:

- Uses the Schemas property to access the XmlSchemaSet object associated with this reader.
- Uses the in-line schema contained in the XML instance document. (The ProcessInlineSchema option must be enabled.)
- Uses the XML Schema specified by schema location hints (xsi:schemaLocation or xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation attribute) found in the XML instance document. (The ProcessSchemaLocation option must be enabled.)
