I have validated the original xml against the original schema. There are no problems there. As for generating xml from the result and validating against the original schema, I have done spot checking on this and no problems have arisen. I don't have it automated so that all cases are checked, but the hand checking I've done have shown no problems. <BR/>Thanks for your comments.Paulhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10201367533944398106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2200693733508292186.post-19732530673900603422008-10-23T14:55:00.000-04:002008-10-23T14:55:00.000-04:00One thing that should be done in this pipeline transformation is to make sure that the input XML is first valid against the Original unlightened schema, and generate a sample xml from the lightened schema and make sure it still validates against the original. Otherwise there are potential interoperability issues.<BR/><BR/>Great to see that the STAR 5.1.4 schemas were included in the tests.David Carverhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09341170413510029324noreply@blogger.com
