Thanks George,
That helps a lot. What I have is a class that, on the fly (i.e., can
change dynamically from one instant to the next), defines a structure
against which I need to validate a given subset of XML - so I need to
convert that class into an in memory XSD and then hand that to the
parser. I was thinking that instead of creating an XSD file from my
class, that I could somehow take my class and create the XSD in memory
without having to create a string representation of the XSD.
But I will figure it out with that link I think - apparently the object
I want to create either a org.apache.xerces.xni.grammars.XSGrammar;
or an org.apache.xerces.xs.XSModel.

Hi Lauren,
For validating a document with a specified schema see
http://xml.apache.org/xerces2-j/faq-grammars.html
If you have the schema document as a String in memory then you can very
easily feed that to the parser. The parser needs an InputSource and that
does not require a file, you can set directly a Reader that can be a
StringReader created over the String that represents your schema.
Hope that helps,
George
