Re: Installing custom datatype libraries

I've been able top get this to work with Sun's MSV, though I had to 
directly call the driver class
to do it. It did not work when merely using java -jar.

~/Desktop/Downloads/jing-20030619/sample/datatype$ java -classpath 
datatype-sample.jar:/Users/elharo/Desktop/Downloads/msv-20030225/msv.jar 
com.sun.msv.driver.textui.Driver  datatype-sample.rng  valid.xml
start parsing a grammar.
Loaded balanced string
validating valid.xml
the document is valid.

There may be some weird classpath issue with runnable
jar archives here. Hmm, yep that's what's happening. Quoting from the 
docs for the java interpreter -jar option, "When you use this option, 
the JAR file is the source of all user classes, and other user class 
path settings are ignored."

Learn something new every day, I suppose. There's still an issue with 
Jing though. It does not work even when I do not use -classpath. I think 
it may be failing to set an error handler. Time permitting I'll try to 
debug this. Is there a public CVS server or a bug database for Jing 
anywhere?
