∟XSD 1.1 Supported by jaxp.SourceValidator

This section provides a tutorial example showing that jaxp.SourceValidator does support XSD 1.1.

If you want to validate XML documents that uses an XSD 1.1 schema, you can try these 2 JAXP technology sample programs.

Here is how to run jaxp.SourceValidator to get its usage notes: 

herong> java_xerces jaxp.SourceValidator -h

usage: java jaxp.SourceValidator (options) ...

options:
 -l name    Select schema language by name.
 -x number  Select number of repetitions.
 -a uri ... Provide a list of schema documents
 -i uri ... Provide a list of instance documents to validate
 -vs source Select validation source (sax|dom|stax|stream)
 -f |-F  Turn on/off Schema full checking.
         NOTE: Not supported by all schema factories and validators.
 -hs|-HS Turn on/off honouring of all schema locations.
         NOTE: Not supported by all schema factories and validators.
 -va|-VA Turn on/off validation of schema annotations.
         NOTE: Not supported by all schema factories and validators.
 -ga|-GA Turn on/off generation of synthetic schema annotations.
         NOTE: Not supported by all schema factories and validators.
 -m |-M  Turn on/off memory usage report
 -xsd11  Turn on XSD 1.1 support.
 -h      This help screen.

defaults:
 Schema language:                 http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema
 Repetition:                      1
 Validation source:               sax
 Schema full checking:            off
 Honour all schema locations:     off
 Validate annotations:            off
 Generate synthetic annotations:  off
 Memory:                          off

Here is my test run of jaxp.SourceValidator on hello_xsd11.xml with XSD 1.1 support turned on. 

herong> java_xerces jaxp.SourceValidator -xsd11 -i hello_xsd11.xml

hello_xsd11.xml: 138 ms

The output confirms that jaxp.SourceValidator supports XSD 1.1.
