I need XML validation support [message #996006]

I like to use Eclipse to edit FB2 files (fictionbook.org).

I can not use links in the message, so:
{web} = h t t p : / / w w w
without spaces.

The file header .fb2 is:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8">
<FictionBook xmlns="{web}.gribuser.ru/xml/fictionbook/2.0" xmlns:l="{web}.w3.org/1999/xlink">
   ...
</ FictionBook>

The XML Schema files are online. I can not modify them. Please review them (only header) to understand the problem:
{web}.gribuser.ru/xml/fictionbook/2.0/xsd/FictionBook2.xsd
{web}.gribuser.ru/xml/fictionbook/2.0/xsd/FictionBookGenres.xsd
{web}.gribuser.ru/xml/fictionbook/2.0/xsd/FictionBookLang.xsd
{web}.gribuser.ru/xml/fictionbook/2.0/xsd/FictionBookLinks.xsd

I added two "Catalog Entry" in "XML Catalog" with the new namespaces:

Location: {web}.gribuser.ru/xml/fictionbook/2.0/xsd/FictionBook2.xsd
Key Type: Namespace name
key: {web}.gribuser.ru/xml/fictionbook/2.0

Location: {web}.gribuser.ru/xml/fictionbook/2.0/xsd/FictionBookGenres.xsd
Key Type: Namespace name
key: {web}.gribuser.ru/xml/fictionbook/2.0/genres

I have no knowledge of XSD, but I think the problem is that the file {web}.gribuser.ru/xml/fictionbook/2.0/xsd/FictionBookLang.xsd uses an obsolete namespace (W3C):

{web}.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace

{web}.gribuser.ru/xml/fictionbook/2.0/xsd/FictionBookLang.xsd:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!-- edited with XML Spy v4.4 U ({web}.xmlspy.com) by Dmitry Gribov (DDS) -->
<xs:schema targetNamespace="{web}.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace" xmlns:xs="{web}.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns="{web}.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace" elementFormDefault="qualified" attributeFormDefault="unqualified">
	<xs:attribute name="lang" type="xs:language">
		<xs:annotation>
			<xs:documentation>Element content's languige</xs:documentation>
		</xs:annotation>
	</xs:attribute>
</xs:schema>

Is it possible to validate FB2 files with XML Catalog or other Eclipse tool/plugin?

thanks

I've found a solution, but i dont know if it's correct or no. Can you check?

I've download FictionBookLink.xsd
I've download and modify FictionBook2.1.xsd and FictionBookGenres.xsd

Changes in XSDs are

In FictionBook2.1.xsd:

out<-- <xs:import namespace="{web}.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace" schemaLocation="FictionBookLang.xsd"/>
in --> <xs:import schemaLocation="{web}.w3.org/2001/xml.xsd" namespace="{web}.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace"/>

In FictionBookGenre.xsd:

out<-- <xs:schema targetNamespace="{web}.gribuser.ru/xml/fictionbook/2.0/genres" xmlns="{web}.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace" xmlns:xs="{web}.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" elementFormDefault="qualified" attributeFormDefault="unqualified">
in --> <xs:schema targetNamespace="{web}.gribuser.ru/xml/fictionbook/2.0/genres" xmlns:xs="{web}.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" elementFormDefault="qualified" attributeFormDefault="unqualified">

Changes in XML Catalog entries are

Location: /media/CARBON/FB2/xsd/2.1/FictionBook2.1.xsd
Key: {web}.gribuser.ru/xml/fictionbook/2.0

Location: /media/CARBON/FB2/xsd/2.1/FictionBookGenres.xsd
Key: {web}.gribuser.ru/xml/fictionbook/2.0/genres

It seems to work fine. Is OK? Is correct change references of 1998/namespace to new 2001/XMLSchema? Affect to the validation results?

Do you know any option/triky like that, for XML Catalog, that permits work with online XSDs? Eclipse System schemas are intouchable.
I've no idea of XSD

Thanks
¡¡Happy new year!!

Hi,

I think you need a "schemaLocation" attribute in der XML declaration, so
that Eclipse can resolve the XSD file.

It should be something like this (not tested ;-)):

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8">
<FictionBook xmlns="{web}.gribuser.ru/xml/fictionbook/2.0"
xmlns:l="{web}.w3.org/1999/xlink"
xsi:schemaLocation="{web}.gribuser.ru/xml/fictionbook/2.0
{web}.gribuser.ru/xml/fictionbook/2.0/xsd/FictionBook2.xsd">
...
</ FictionBook>

For xlink no schemaLocation is required, because Eclipse can resolve it
itself.

Hope this helps

Wolfgang

The online XSDs contents in {web}.gribuser.ru/xml/fictionbook/2.0/xsd are

FictionBook2.xsd

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xs:schema targetNamespace="{web}.gribuser.ru/xml/fictionbook/2.0" xmlns="{web}.gribuser.ru/xml/fictionbook/2.0" xmlns:xs="{web}.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xlink="{web}.w3.org/1999/xlink" xmlns:genre="{web}.gribuser.ru/xml/fictionbook/2.0/genres" elementFormDefault="qualified" attributeFormDefault="unqualified">

      <xs:documentation>link target</xs:documentation>
    </xs:annotation>
  </xs:attribute>
</xs:schema>

FictionBookLang.xsd

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xs:schema targetNamespace="{web}.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace" xmlns:xs="{web}.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns="{web}.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace" elementFormDefault="qualified" attributeFormDefault="unqualified">

    <xs:annotation>
      <xs:documentation>Element content's languige</xs:documentation>
    </xs:annotation>
  </xs:attribute>
</xs:schema>

I have modified my local copy of the files used in Eclipse validation. The modified FictionBook2.xsd is

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xs:schema targetNamespace="{web}.gribuser.ru/xml/fictionbook/2.0" xmlns="{web}.gribuser.ru/xml/fictionbook/2.0" xmlns:xs="{web}.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xlink="{web}.w3.org/1999/xlink" xmlns:genre="{web}.gribuser.ru/xml/fictionbook/2.0/genres" elementFormDefault="qualified" attributeFormDefault="unqualified">
  <xs:import namespace="{web}.w3.org/1999/xlink" schemaLocation="FictionBookLinks.xsd"/>
  <xs:import namespace="{web}.gribuser.ru/xml/fictionbook/2.0/genres" schemaLocation="FictionBookGenres.xsd"/>
  <xs:import namespace="{web}.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace" schemaLocation="{web}.w3.org/2001/xml.xsd"/>
  <xs:element name="FictionBook">
  ... [large file] ...
  </xs:element>
</xs:schema>

Now FictionBookLang.xsd is not used. I override the import of FictionBookLang.xsd in FictionBook2.xsd with
<xs:import namespace="{web}.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace" schemaLocation="{web}.w3.org/2001/xml.xsd"/>

I have no knowledge about XML schemas. I'd like to use Eclipse to edit FB2 files and validate them, but seems that Eclipse XML Catalog don't like FictionBookLang.xsd's contents.
Is my solution/triky correct in terms of XML schemas?
Is a correct FB2 validation?
Does 2001/xml.xsd define the same lang atribute that 1998/namespace?

Thanks

Hi

sorry for the late reply.

Could you post the web location of the fictionbook xsds? I tried to
browse http://gribuser.ru/xml/fictionbook/2.0 - but this seems to result
in a 404 error, and I cannot read the page ;-).

I found the files (2.2 version) also here:
http://yaboobooker.googlecode.com/svn-history/r3/trunk/schemas/2.2

Using Eclipse, I could create this xml file. Take a look at the schema
location "xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.gribuser.ru/xml/fictionbook/2.0
http://yaboobooker.googlecode.com/svn-history/r3/trunk/schemas/2.2/FictionBook.xsd".

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

You could also add the xsd files to your xml catalog, but I did not
manage to handle this ;-). It seems that the somehow overwrite some xml
standard XSDs, this is somehow "strange"...

Best regards
