After working in software development in various industries over the past decade, Eric Schwarzenbach eventually came to specialize in electronic publishing. The issues of document-oriented XML are his focus: document and knowledge modeling, processing, and management frameworks, as well as XML databases and searching. He's written custom document management systems and worked with native XML databases such as Tamino. He currently serves as the unofficial Tamino XDBA and content engineering lead at Classwell Learning Group.
In Part 1 of this article (XML-J, Volume 4, issue 7) we outlined why a
development group might consider alternative validation schemes. An example
from our experience is applying work group rules to the process of XSD
design. We said rules could take the form of a Schematron schema that would
be applied when a developer validates an XSD against the schema for XSD. In
our past work, a need existed for a productive way to put the alternative
into play without losing familiar tools or disrupting current development
patterns. For that reason we developed a simple multipass validation
framework using XMLSPY's Scripting Environment. In this installment, we walk
you through the scripting that remains to be set up and then look at how our
framework can be a productive tool for your real-world use.
