NAME
       XML::Validate::MSXML - Interface to MSXML validator

SYNOPSIS
	 my $validator = new XML::Validate::MSXML(%options);
	 if ($doc = $validator->validate($xml)) {
	   ... Do stuff with $doc ...
	 } else {
	   print "Document is invalid
";
	 }

DESCRIPTION
       XML::Validate::MSXML is an interface to Microsoft's MSXML parser (often available in Windows environments) which can be used with the
       XML::Validate module.

METHODS
       new(%options)
	   Returns a new XML::Validate::MSXML instance using the specified options. (See OPTIONS below.)

       validate($xml)
	   Returns true if $xml could be successfully parsed, undef otherwise.

       last_dom()
	   Returns the MSXML DOM object of the document last validated.

       last_error()
	   Returns the error from the last validate call. This is a hash ref with the following fields:

       create_doc_and_cache()
	   Internal method for instantiation of MSXML DOMDocument and SchemaCache objects for use within the module.

       dependencies_available()
	   Internal method to determine that the necessary dependencies are available for instantiation of MSXML DOMDocument and SchemaCache
	   objects.

       load_schemas($msxml, $msxmlcache)
	   Internal method to perform loading of XML schema(s) into SchemaCache object.

	   o   message

	   o   line

	   o   column

	   Note that the error gets cleared at the beginning of each "validate" call.

       version()
	   Returns the version of the MSXML component that is installed

OPTIONS
       XML::Validate::MSXML takes the following options:

       strict_validation
	   If this boolean value is true, the document will be validated during parsing.  Otherwise it will only be checked for well-formedness.
	   Defaults to true.

ERROR REPORTING
       When a call to validate fails to parse the document, the error may be retrieved using last_error.

       On errors not related to the XML parsing, these methods will throw exceptions.  Wrap calls with eval to catch them.

PACKAGE GLOBALS
       $XML::Validate::MSXML::MSXML_VERSION contains the version number of MSXML.

DEPENDENCIES
       Win32::OLE, MSXML 4.0 or 5.0
