## Introduction
|
||||
The validator is an XML validation engine to validate and process XML files in various formats. It basically does the following in order:
|
||||
|
||||
1. identify actual xml format
|
||||
1. validate the xml file (using schema and schematron rules)
|
||||
1. generate a custom report / extract custom data from the xml file
