I am trying to validate an XML using a DTD file. I have captured the output but I don't know what line/what word, etc. is causing the validation to fail. Here is the code:
my ($dtd_file) = @_;
my $file_target = "$main::args{xml_dir}/$main::args{file}";
my $dtd_target = "$main::args{xml_dir}/$dtd_file";
my $dtd = XML::LibXML::Dtd->new("", $dtd_target);
my $parser = XML::LibXML->new();
$parser->validation(1);
my $document;
if (! -f $file_target) {
print "Cannot find required file: $file_target\n";
exit(0);
}
if (! -f "$dtd_target") {
print "Cannot find required file: $dtd_target\n";
exit(0);
}
eval {
$document = $parser->parse_file($file_target);
$document->validate($dtd_file);
};
if ($@) {
print "XML not valid because of $@ !\n";
}
If I use this code I get the error message:
XML not valid because of is_valid: argument must be a DTD object at ./autobuild.pl line 146.
Line 146 is the line were $document->validate($dtd_file) is called.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
