QDomDocument::setContent() and error parsing
-
@Christian-Ehrlicher Thank you.
I suppose I misunderstood the documentation here?
https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtxml-module.html#detailsBut I am glad to know that it is still officially supported. I will take a look at Qt XML Patterns now.
-
@Robert-Hairgrove Do you mean "Note that the module will not receive additional features anymore"? This does not mean it is depricated.
-
@Christian-Ehrlicher Now that Qt 6.0 has been released, I see that the XML patterns module was removed entirely from this version of Qt. What do I need to do, building with Qt 6, in order to validate an XML document against a schema XSD document stored in Qt resources, for example? I haven't found any relative documentation which explains how to compensate for the removal of XML patterns.
Resetting this thread to "unsolved".
-
@Robert-Hairgrove Don'T use Qt6 or an external xsd validation library. You will not get it back in Qt6 except you write it on your own.
-
@Christian-Ehrlicher Thank you.
I assume you meant to write: "Don't use Qt6, or
else usean external xsd validation library"?I know that I could do this with Xerces, but would like to avoid the dependency if I can. Does anyone have suggestions for a lightweight external library? It should work on Linux and Windows, if possible.

@Robert-Hairgrove
I feel your pain. We won't be thanked/will be shot down for saying this, but if you are saying theQXml...classes are gone from Qt 6(?) that is a sad, retrograde step for those of us who use XML. In that case I just hope they drop the JSON support too.... -
@JonB The removed features are listed here. There are still classes which are named beginning with
QXml..., but I don't know if they still work as they did before: -
I bit the bullet and now am using Xerces. It's fairly easy to use, but quite a large library to install. At least it works on both Windows and Linux, and the licensing is agreeable.

Hi,
I am confrontied to the same issue. I have a Qt5 application relying on QXmlSchemaValidator validator; to validate an xml against an xsd file. Not sure what shall be done to port my application to Qt6? Does the QXmlStreamReader do this check implicitely?
Regards,

QXmlStreamReader is for reading xml, not for validating. You have to use another 3rd party library.
