Need help finding an XML Schema validator
 

Hey all,

I'm looking for a schema validation solution that works on Windows XP and Fedora Core 2 (please don't nag, we have custom hardware/kernel code to support) with a C++ API. The problem is, I'm having trouble finding something that is JUST a validator. I'm developing a tool for internal company use, and we are using QT 4.1.4. Qt has a DOM parser (which we are using), but it does not validate. I don't need ANOTHER DOM parser (though I am still considering using Xerces).

I've looked at the list of tools at W3C, I've been to ibm, I've googled. Some of this is a bit confusing, as it seems people are more intrested in writing classes from schemas instead of validating xml with them.

Any suggestions?

I remember having a fun time during my WebTech degree module with XML schema and document validation. I've bookmarked the following four sites, hope you find what you want. :)

Edit: http://xerces.apache.org/xerces2-j/faq-xs.html#faq-8 might help too.

Well, It's looking more and more like Xerces is going to be the answer. Ah well, what's one more huge library that will have to be installed on 1300 computers, in 6 countries, supporting two software platforms, and toting an incompatable license to boot ::sigh::...

Ah well, I'll deal, but if anyone has a validation only library they know about, or a novel solution with Qt, let me know!
