You can do it with XML::LibXML. Make sure that you have the latest libxml2 library installed (http://xmlsoft.org/), as it has improved schema validation. For instance, Redhat Linux came with an older version of libxml2, so I installed the latest version from source. The default location is different to the standard Linux build, so I reinstalled XML::LibXML and XML::LibXML::Common to point to it.
use XML::LibXML; my $schema_file = 'po.xsd'; my $document = 'po.xml'; my $schema = XML::LibXML::Schema->new(location => $schema_file); my $parser = XML::LibXML->new; my $doc = $parser->parse_file($document); eval { $schema->validate($doc) }; die $@ if $@; print "$document validated successfully\n";
For some reason, this is not documented in the POD (which is why almost no one knows about XML:LibXML's schema validation powers!), but the XML::LibXML source comes with the documentation in docbook format plus a utility to generate the POD from that.
