Make validate

Hi,

When I run "make validate", this validates "en" and errors are displayed
in the console window.
But I can't find the usual "en.xml" file browsing all the trunk folder
and sub folders.

That's because we don't need this file for making HTML. We use
xsltproc ... --xinclude ... xml/fr/gimp.xml
without the intermediate step of generating an XML file with all files
included.

I will change validating to create this file if xmllint finds any
errors.

Bye,

Hi,

Why these differences :

~/SVN-po/trunk> make validate
test -s log/en-xmllint.log && cat log/en-xmllint.log
No errors.

~/SVN-po/trunk> make -f Makefile.GNU validate
*** Validating XML (en) ...
No errors.

What is the right way to validate?

Julien

Hmm, you should never see the first line, unless you
make validate VERBOSE=2

Probably you forgot to re-run autogen.sh.

"make validate" or "make validate-fr" should work the the same way for
both Makefile and Makefile.GNU.

You will see the message "*** Validating XML (en) ..." if xmllint is
really validating. The result is saved to "log/en-xmllint.log", which
is displayd on the screen. When you re-run "make validate" without any
changes to the source files, the logfile will be printed to screen
without invoking xmllint (and without the "Validating" message).
