XOM API for Processing XML with Java

[org.ibiblio.lists.xom-interest AT coreland.ath.cx]

Hello.

Currently, I'm doing the following:

  xv = BuilderPool.GLOBAL_POOL.getMSVBuilder(new File(schema_path).toURI());

... where schema_path points to the RELAX-NG file I'm validating XML against.

And then:

  doc = xv.build (data);

... where data is an input stream containing XML data.

The problem: I'd like to read and parse an XML tree BEFORE validating. There
doesn't really seem to be a way to do this beyond re-serializing the tree to
a stream and then calling the above (which seems a pretty roundabout way of
doing things).

Any ideas?
