Validating documents and schemas

XML Output provides an option to run two XML validation checks at run time:

• Checks for well-formed XML.
• Checks that elements and attributes conform to any XML schema that is referenced in the document.

If you decide to use the option, both validations are performed. Otherwise, no validation occurs.

To refer to a schema in your XML document, use the attribute schemaLocation within the root element tag.

For information about activating validation against a schema, see Stage properties.
