Is this correct to validate a bare xml document? Thanks.
Sorry to bring this up again.
My input is a DOM document object which contains no namespace and
schemaLocation in its root element. I need to validate it. What I'm
doing is
--- doc is the DOM document I want to validate ---
Element root = doc.getDocumentElement();
root.setAttribute("xmlns", mynamespace);
root.setAttribute("xmlns:xsi","http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema-instance");
root.setAttribute("xsi:schemaLocation", mynamespace+"
"+mySchemaLocation);
validate(doc);
It seems not good to do this because an exception is thrown. However, if
I add the namespace stuff into the xml file and validate it, it's
totally OK. So I believe xerces doesn't recognize the post-added
xmlns/xmlns:xsi/xsi:schemaLocation as namespace nodes. Then what kind
of action should I take before validation?
What I'm using is Xerces 1.2.3/windows 2000.

I've got it. The classpath is wrong.
