XML Parser
[Previous] [Main] [Next]

When opening any XML document, XML Spy uses its new built-in incremental validating parser to both check the document for well-formedness and validate it against any specified DTD, DCD, XDR, BizTalk, or XSD Schema.

The same parser is also being used while editing a document that refers to a DTD, DCD, XDR, BizTalk, or XSD Schema to provide intelligent editing help and immediately display any validation error that is encountered.

This is possible through the incremental design of the new parser that is optimized for the special needs of an integrated development environment.

The built-in parser already implements much of the new April 7 XML Schema draft from the W3C and we are constantly tracking the W3C Schema Group's efforts and are actively participating in all Schema-related discussions to provide you with a state-of-the-art development environment.
