Schema validation android

In java there is class SchemaFactory which is used for schema validation but it is not available in android. Is there any other option available?

There is currently no XSchema support in Android. This was true in version 1.0, and I just looked at the changes in 1.5 and no changes have been made to any of the xml packages, so it appears to me it's still true. I don't have the source > 1.0 though.

In the 1.0 source code there's the following comments in various parser classes:

// TODO No XSchema support in Android 1.0. Maybe later.

So you'll have to bundle your own classes or skip schema validation altogether for now. It's probably not a high priority feature for them.

So long as the SchemaFactory class requires no JNI code you can just import its .jar file into your Android project and use it directly.

You could try using the validator from the XML implementation directly. Either see if you can find the validator classes in whatever XML parser comes with Android, or use a standalone validator like MSV
