validate_xml: Validate an xml file using an xsd schema file.

In bogdanoancea/simutils: Basic functionalities to deal with simulated mobile network data

Validate an xml file using an xsd schema file.

Description

validate_xml validates an xml file using an xsd schema file.

This function is a wrapper for a validator written in Java. Thus, it needs a jar file, which is included in this package. If the xml file does not conform to the schema definition, it provides information where the error is.

The xsdFileName and xmlFileName arguments must be provided with absolute paths.

Usage

validate_xml(xsdFileName, xmlObject)

Arguments

xsdFileName	Path of the xsd file containing the schema.
xmlObject	Object of class xml-document from package xml2 or character of length 1 with the path of the xml file.

Details

Return 0 if xml file is validated and a non-zero value otherwise.
