El siguiente ejemplo valida un archivo XML y genera el error o advertencia apropiado.
using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Xml;
using System.Xml.Schema;
public class Sample
{
public static void Main()
{
//Load the XmlSchemaSet.
XmlSchemaSet schemaSet = new XmlSchemaSet();
schemaSet.Add("urn:bookstore-schema", "books.xsd");
//Validate the file using the schema stored in the schema set.
//Any elements belonging to the namespace "urn:cd-schema" generate
//a warning because there is no schema matching that namespace.
Validate("store.xml", schemaSet);
Console.ReadLine();
}
private static void Validate(String filename, XmlSchemaSet schemaSet)
{
Console.WriteLine();
Console.WriteLine("\r\nValidating XML file {0}...", filename.ToString());
XmlSchema compiledSchema = null;
foreach (XmlSchema schema in schemaSet.Schemas())
{
compiledSchema = schema;
}
XmlReaderSettings settings = new XmlReaderSettings();
settings.Schemas.Add(compiledSchema);
settings.ValidationEventHandler += new ValidationEventHandler(ValidationCallBack);
settings.ValidationType = ValidationType.Schema;
//Create the schema validating reader.
XmlReader vreader = XmlReader.Create(filename, settings);
while (vreader.Read()) { }
//Close the reader.
vreader.Close();
}
//Display any warnings or errors.
private static void ValidationCallBack(object sender, ValidationEventArgs args)
{
if (args.Severity == XmlSeverityType.Warning)
Console.WriteLine("\tWarning: Matching schema not found. No validation occurred." + args.Message);
else
Console.WriteLine("\tValidation error: " + args.Message);
}
}
