Re: Parsing a schema for code generation

[ibrahim <ib...@natlab.research.philips.com>]

I read through this and find it interesting.

I have Xerces-J 1.2.2 validating my XML documents at the moment (using
DOMParser) and I need to make sure that any editings to those XML
documents conform the documents' corresponding XML Schema, on-the-fly or
real-time or whatever the term might be (hope I'm understandable enough
with these two terms..:P)

I would like to know what GrammarResolver is really doing. I'm not a
Java expert, so I don't think I would try to jump into the source code.
Could you explain to me or give me a site that explains it ? I find the
API not very describing... but again, it might be caused by my lack of
Java knowledge...

I read something about data-binding as well. Could you give me a
suggestion as which approach is more appropriate to take ? What's the
plus point of data-binding?

thx a lot,
cath


    public class Parser extends SAXParser {
        public XMLValidator getValidator() {
            return fValidator;
        }
    }

    ...
    Parser parser = new Parser();
    XMLValidator validator = parser.getValidator();
    GrammarResolver gr = new GrammarResolverImpl();
    validator.setGrammarResolver(gr);
    ...
    parser.parse(input);
    Grammar g = gr.getGrammar(nameSpaceKey);
    if(g != null && g instanceof SchemaGrammar) {
       //etcetera
    }
