SemanticValidator

SemanticValidator for XML files which can be semantically validated.

This tool is able to semantically validate an XML file against a CV-mapping file. The CV-mapping file describes the validity of CV-terms for a given tag inside the XML. The CV-mapping file conforms to the CvMapping XML schema (found at /share/OpenMS/SCHEMAS/CvMapping.xsd or http://www.psidev.info/sites/default/files/CvMapping.xsd).

Example files that can be semantically validated using this tool are mzML, TraML, mzIdentML, mzData or any XML file.

The command line parameters of this tool are:
