Hello,
I am trying to import one xsd schema into another via the xsd:import statement. The files are in the following directories: ./appgen/config/ApplicationSchema.xsd <- - - the xsd doing the importing ./appgen/config/xsd/ConfigurableDimensionsContext.xsd In ApplicationSchema.xsd, I have specified: <xsd:schema xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" elementFormDefault="unqualified"> <xsd:import namespace="http://prosrm.com/appgen" schemaLocation="xsd/ConfigurableDimensionsContext.xsd" /> . . . This is referenced in an XML as follows: <Application xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="../appgen/config/ApplicationSchema.xsd"> . . . This xml file is located in directory: ./scf/ (./scf is at the same level as ./appgen). When I try to parse with xerces, I get this error: [java] - Unrecoverable warning parsing input SCF: C:\prosrm\pricing/../scf/ PricingDemo.xml [java] org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: schema_reference.4: Failed to read sc hema document 'xsd/ConfigurableDimensionsContext.xsd', because 1) could not find the document; 2) the document could not be read; 3) the root element of the doc ument is not <xsd:schema>. [java] at org.apache.xerces.util.ErrorHandlerWrapper.createSAXParseExce ption(Unknown Source) [java] at org.apache.xerces.util.ErrorHandlerWrapper.warning(Unknown So urce) [java] at org.apache.xerces.impl.XMLErrorReporter.reportError(Unknown S ource) Note that it could not find the file, even though the *relative* path in the "schemaLocation" attribute matches the path referenced in the error message above, and it is correct. Furthermore (and a bit confusing to me), is IF I have ConfigurableDimensionsContext.xsd in the same directory as the importing ApplicationSchema.xsd, it is found, and all is OK. It seems like the parser is taking just the file name (stripping off the relative dir) of the schemaLocation attribute, and looking for that name in the current directory. Is this correct? Is that the correct behavior? Or am I doing something wrong? I would like the import xsds to be in a different directory than the main one. How can I get this to work?
