What tools can I use to read a TransXChange Schema from my own Applications?
TransXChange uses standard XML technologies and can be parsed using off- the-shelf XML validators and parsers. Please note however, that the TransXChange schema models a complex problem domain, and so requires a relatively large, complex schema that uses XML’s features in a fairly sophisticated fashion. It is modularised into smaller sub-schemas for maintainability and reusability; TransXChange is part of a unified set of UK Public Transport standards and it therefore references standard types and elements that are shared with other UK PT and government schemas such as NaPTAN (these are found in the /napt and /apd directories). Separate namespaces are used for various subschema. Keyref constraints, a new feature of XML, are also used, including xpath expressions for elements. It is therefore necessary to use fully featured tools that implement modern XML features to process the schema and instance documents. • The schema and the examples have been validated using the following validato
