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 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 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 to validate a (parsed) document against the given RelaxNG schema. The argument of this function should be a
	   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.
