NAME

       XML::LibXML::RelaxNG - RelaxNG Schema Validation

SYNOPSIS

         use XML::LibXML;
         $doc = XML::LibXML->new->parse_file($url);

         $rngschema = XML::LibXML::RelaxNG->new( location => $filename_or_url );
         $rngschema = XML::LibXML::RelaxNG->new( string => $xmlschemastring );
         $rngschema = XML::LibXML::RelaxNG->new( DOM => $doc );
         eval { $rngschema->validate( $doc ); };

DESCRIPTION

       The XML::LibXML::RelaxNG class is a tiny frontend to libxml2's RelaxNG implementation.
       Currently it supports only schema parsing and document validation.

METHODS

       new
             $rngschema = XML::LibXML::RelaxNG->new( location => $filename_or_url );
             $rngschema = XML::LibXML::RelaxNG->new( string => $xmlschemastring );
             $rngschema = XML::LibXML::RelaxNG->new( DOM => $doc );

           The constructor of XML::LibXML::RelaxNG may get called with either one of three
           parameters. The parameter tells the class from which source it should generate a
           validation schema. It is important, that each schema only have a single source.

           The location parameter allows one to parse a schema from the filesystem or a URL.

           The string parameter will parse the schema from the given XML string.

           The DOM parameter allows one to parse the schema from a pre-parsed
           XML::LibXML::Document.

           Note that the constructor will die() if the schema does not meed the constraints of
           the RelaxNG specification.

       validate
             eval { $rngschema->validate( $doc ); };

           This function allows one to validate a (parsed) document against the given RelaxNG
           schema. The argument of this function should be an XML::LibXML::Document object. If
           this function succeeds, it will return 0, otherwise it will die() and report the
           errors found. Because of this validate() should be always evaluated.
