- +
-<note tip>You can use these simple ​ {{:​teaching:​infoh509:​validationtools.zip|validation tools}} (written in Java) to help check if your example documents conform toyour XSD. Unzip the file, and then use either ''​java -jar DTDValidator.jar <​xmldoc>''​ or ''​java -jar XSDValidator.jar <​schemadoc>​ <​xmldoc>''​ to validate. The third jar file contais the source code, should you be interested.</​note>​ +

- +
-==== Project Assignment 2: XSLT ==== +

-more assignments to follow, each contributing 2/20). The written exam +
-contributes the remaining 14/20 points.  +
- +
-See the full assignment for related dealine(s), what the solution should entail, and to whom it should be submitted).  +
- +
-<note tip>The zip file above contains a XSLT transformation tool. You can use ''​java -jar xslt-tool.jar <​xslt-file>​ <​inputfile>​ <​outputfile>''​ to run it. </​note>​ +
- +
- +
-==== Lecture 6: Querying XML documents with XQuery === +
- +
-In Lecture 6 we have discussed how XML documents can be queried and transformed into other formats (be it XML or not) using XQuery. See pages 240-2840 in the book (**except sections 6.7.5, 6.8, 6.9**) and +
-the {{:​teaching:​infoh509:​6-xquery.pdf|corresponding slides}}. +

-corresponding {{:​teaching:​infoh509:​trois_xquery_data.zip|support files}}. +
- +
-This assignment is to be made in groups of +
-two persons and contributes 2/20 to the overall grade (there are two +
-more assignments to follow, each contributing 2/20). The written exam +
-contributes the remaining 14/20 points.  +
