<h2><a name="xmlvalidate">XMLValidate</a></h2>
|
|
<h3>Description</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>This task checks that XML files are valid (or only well formed). The
|
|
task uses the SAX2 parser implementation provided by JAXP by default
|
|
(probably the one that is used by Ant itself), but one can specify any
|
|
SAX1/2 parser if needed.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>This task supports the use of nested
|
|
<li><a href="../CoreTypes/xmlcatalog.html"><tt><xmlcatalog></tt></a> elements</li>
|
|
<li><tt><dtd></tt> elements which are used to resolve DTDs and entities</li>
|
|
<li><tt><attribute></tt> elements which are used to set features on the parser.
|
|
These can be any number of
|
|
<a href="http://www.saxproject.org/apidoc/org/xml/sax/package-summary.html#package_description"><tt>http://xml.org/sax/features/</tt></a>
|
|
or other features that your parser may support.</li>
|
|

<p>The <tt><attribute></tt> element is used to set SAX Parser features.

There can be any number of attributes set, as defined here:
