So when it comes to validation, do you (yes, you, reader...) consider DTD
validation and schema validation to be separate things, turned on
separately? For example, when you invoke this method:
public Document build(boolean validate);
in SAXBuilder or DOMBuilder, and send it "true", do you expect that to
validate both DTDs referenced AND schemas referenced? Just one? Should it
stay as is, or should it be:
public void validateDTDs(boolean validateDTDs);
public void validateSchemas(boolean validateSchemas);
public Document build();
I don't like, fyi,
public Document build(boolean validateDTDs, boolean validateSchemas);
too confusing...
so what do people think?
