DESCRIPTION

       mono-xmltool is a command line front end for various functions available in the Mono XML class libraries. It currently it offers validation
       with various different kinds of schemas, xslt transformations and pretty printing.

XML VALIDATION

       mono-xmltool can validate a given set of XML files (the instances parameter) using the given schema file.  Currently supported schema files
       include Relax NG (*.rng), Compact Relax NG (*.rnc), Namespace-based Validation Dispatching Language (*.nvdl) and XML Schema (*.xsd).

       If invoked with the --validate argument, Mono will use the filename extension to guess the kind of validation required.	The --validate-xxx
       flags would force a specific kind of validation.

       The following lists the flags and the actual class that implements them in Mono:

       --validate-rng

	      Commons.Xml.Relaxng.RelaxNgPattern as the schema, and Commons.Xml.Relaxng.RelaxngValidatingReader validator.

       --validate-rnc
	      Commons.Xml.Relaxng.RncParser as the schema, and Commons.Xml.Relaxng.RelaxngValidatingReader validator.

       --validate-nvdl

	      Commons.Xml.Nvdl as the schema and Commons.Xml.NvdlValidatingReader validator.

       --validate-xsd
	      System.Xml.Schema.XmlSchema as the schema and uses System.Xml.XmlValidatingReader as the validator.

TRANSFORMATIONS

       This does an XSLT transformation. The stylesheet must be an XSLT file, the instance-xml is the document to be processed.  Output it sent to
       the standard output.

PRETTY PRINTING

       Produces  a  pretty-print  rendering of the source file.  If it is not specified it reads the standard input.   If result is not specified,
       the output is sent to the standard output.
