Validating a DTD file lets you verify that it is well formed
and does not contain any errors.
The following instructions were written for the Resource
perspective, but they will also work in many other perspectives.
To
validate a DTD, right-click the DTD in the Navigator view and click . A dialog opens, indicating
if the DTD file was successfully validated or not. If the file is
invalid, any errors will appear in the Problems view.
Note: If you receive an error message indicating that the
Problems view is full, you can increase the number of error messages
allowed in the view. Click and select . On this preferences page you can increase or decrease
the number of visible items in the problems view.
You can
set up a project's properties so that different types of project resources
are automatically validated when you save them. Right click on the
project, click Properties, and select Validation.
Any validators you can run against your project will be listed
in the Validation page.
