Re: Validate XML using XSD before sending

I have used the xml toolkit for validation but found it horrible to work
with.
I have written some validation using java and call it from rpg. It is
far more straight forward and readable...
I can give you sample code if you want to have a look.

Jeff,

We are still on v5r4 where I'm at...I noticed the following at the link
I posted...
"XML Toolkit for IBM i (5733XT1) and it's follow-on product XML Toolkit
for IBM i (5733XT2)....Development shops using XML Toolkit for IBM i
(5733XT1), will need to upgrade to the most current version of the
toolkit, XML Toolkit for IBM i (5733XT2) when moving to IBM i 6.1.
Earlier versions (XT1) will not be supported at i 6.1"

Also found this download link
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=nas1dc845337606dc078862578
a900587b45
supporting v5r4 - 7.1

Lastly, the CDs have documentation included on them...

Charles

which refernces the toolkit as supporting

Thanks Charles.
It appears that the latest version was via PTF for V5R4.
The client I am working at is on V7R1.

Is this still availalbe?
Also, I did not see any documentation on how to use the tools.
Where can I find that?

Thanks,

Jeff,

Looked into this myself...

Expat doesn't support validation against XSD RPG built in SAX/DOM
doesn't support validation against XSD

However, IBM's XML Toolkit does provide for this functionality via
the Xerces-C parser it uses..

All,
I am creating an XML document to send to a customer.
They have an XSD that can be used to validate that all required
data is present and the document is well formed.

Can someone point me to a resource that describes how I can use
this XSD

to

validate my data before I send it?

Thanks,
