[erlang-questions] xmerl_xsd can't find schema

[Lars Thorsen]

Hi Matti,
I looked through the xmerl_xsd code and it is a bug in process_schema.
I must just check so the calls from xmerl_scan to xmerl_xsd when validating
an xml file works ok with the change.

A workaround while waiting for the fix is:

xmerl_xsd:process_schema(<xsd file without path>, [{xsdbase, <path to schema dir>}]).

There is just one thing that I wonder about, the only case that works for me when I use a path
to the schema is ../dir/file.xsd because ../dir/../dir/file.xsd is the same place.


Regards Lars
