[XML-SIG] Re: how to use XSV in python to validate an xml file against an xsd schema file

[Nico Grubert]

hello henry,

thank you for your posting.

Unfortunately, I do not know exactly what I have to do with the line "  res[0].printme(sys.stdout)  " you mentioned in your posting.


What I am trying is:
 - run the 'validateTestXML.py' to validate "myxmlfile.xml" against  the "myxsdfile.xsd" XSD schema file
- write the result into a variable 'res' to see, if error(s) ocurred or not


What's wrong in my short script below ( 'validateTestXML.py' )? 
 - Is it right, that I call the method 'runitAndShow()' to to validate "myxmlfile.xml" against  the "myxsdfile.xsd" XSD schema file ?
- How do I get a result if the validation returned errors or not ?
