xmlvalidate with xmlcatalog

Hello,

I try to use xmlcatalog within xmlvalidate, but ANT doesn't find a
resolver. I looked into the manual, but didn't find any idea for a
proper classpath in my environment. Any help would be appreciated.

I use Apache Ant version 1.7.1 at FreeBSD 8.0

-- Debug messages ------------------------------------------------

resolveEntity: 'null': 'file:/home/filename.xsd'
Apache resolver library not found, internal resolver will be used
Failed to load Apache resolver: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/xml/resolver/tools/CatalogResolver

         location="/usr/local/share/java/apache-ant/lib/ant-apache-resolver.jar"/>
     </classpath>
     <entity publicId="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/"

  <attribute name="http://xml.org/sax/features/namespace-prefixes" 
    value="true"/>
</xmlvalidate>
-------------------------------------------------------------------

'location' inside <entity> is a relative path to the projects 'baseDir'.

Thanks for any hints.

I tried the same task with <schemavalidate> instead of <xmlvalidate>,
but it didn't work with <xmlcatalog> integrated in <schemavalidate>.

Now, I use the nested element <schema> that looks for the namespace.  It
works without any external resolver. It's no OASIS catalog solution, but
that's ok for me. :-)

<schemavalidate file="${xml-file}.xml" 
                classname="org.apache.xerces.parsers.SAXParser">
  <schema namespace="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/"
    file="../DC/dc.xsd"/>
  <schema namespace="http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace"
    file="../xml.xsd"/>

I must admit I've never tried that.  Looking at the documentation of
<schemavalidate>[1] - which really just is <xmlvalidate> with sensible
defaults for XSD validation - it says

Sounds as if the namespace's URI should be used as publicId.

Thanks for the link. Now the resolver is loaded, but the catalog
entities doesn't really fit.

How to use catalog entity with XML Schema?

I tried 'namespace' and 'schemaLocation' as PublicId, but it didn't
work.

Ant's distribution doesn't contain the XML resolver itself, only the
bridge code needed to use one.  In addition to ant-apache-resolver.jar
you also need the resolver library of Apache XML Commons
<http://xml.apache.org/commons/components/resolver/>
