问题
I maintain the JDOM project and I am trying to 'certify' it on Android. Most things work fine, but XML Schema validation is proving problematic...
My questions are: Is there a way to do XMLSchema validation on Android? If there is, how?
Questions like this have been asked before, but no conclusive answer is given:
- Android schema validation
- XML Schema Validation in Android
This is what I currently 'know' (correct me if I am wrong)...:
- SchemaFactory.newInstance("http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema") - fails with IllegalArgumentException
- the default 'ExpatParser' in Android from the Harmony project does not support XMLSchema validation.
- It is possible to load Xerces in an Android app, and even parse with it, but not to do a Validating parse - when you try you get 'FATAL' Android exceptions causing application crashes.
I have been working on this for some time now, and I have put together the following 'research':
- JDOM2 and Android
- JDOM2 - Android with Xerces
If anyone has any more information about XMLSchema Validation on Android I would greatly appreciate any input at all.
If anyone has successfully done XMLSchema validation on XML and can help me get the functionality working for JDOM they'll get thousands of internet points ... ;-) and will be immortalized in the JDOM code and commit messages.

I'm fascinated that, after several years, this still is an open issue. There only seems to be bad news, though. According to the AOSP Issue Tracker Schema validation currently seems unsupported with the standard Android APIs and Google seems to be unwilling to fix it:
Our XML APIs (including SAX, XmlPull and DOM) don't support any of the following:
XML Schema XML DTDs (including external entity declarations and references) validation element content whitespace
However, one commenter of that same ticket references a workaround, and provides example code using a Xerces port. I don't know if this goes beyond what you've figured out, so far, but I hope it helps.
To wrap this up: The SchemaFactoryFinder only knows the following Schema definitions:
- W3C_XML_SCHEMA10_NS_URI = "http://www.w3.org/XML/XMLSchema/v1.0"
- W3C_XML_SCHEMA10_NS_URI = "http://www.w3.org/XML/XMLSchema/v1.1"
Using any other schema definition causes it to fail (It will however log this on debug level). Obviously this is the case for you, as you're using another reference to the 2011 schema. So "correctly" referencing the Schema Definition should fix this issue.

I am using
javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilder;
javax.xml.parsers.DocumentBuilderFactory;
javax.xml.parsers.ParserConfigurationException;
If you got a XML string you can parse it by:
Document doc = null;
DocumentBuilderFactory dbf = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
DocumentBuilder db = dbf.newDocumentBuilder();
InputSource is = new InputSource();
is.setCharacterStream(new StringReader(xml));
doc = db.parse(is);
please don't forget the exception handling.

I think you could use RelaxNG - there are plenty of validators available. http://relaxng.org/#validators
Of particular interest should be - http://www.kohsuke.org/relaxng/bali/doc/ - https://msv.java.net/ - http://www.davidashen.net/rnv.html
The latter is C implementation, the first two are written in Java.
If you need high performance, you could write some JNI code and call functions in the rnv source. A simpler approach would be to just build rnv for Android, using NDK and then call it's executable with parameters.
Something like
Process p = Runtime.exec("/path/to/rnv/exec", [valdidationDoc: String, some more params]);
OutputStream out = p.getOutputStream(); // connected to STDIN of p
InputStream in = p.getInputStream(); // connected to STDOUT of p
out.write(new FileInputStream("/path/to/xml"));
/// read in for succes/errors
