Location of Schema used for current xml file unclear about xmlnotepad

[lovettchris]

Hi Markus, thanks for your question. If you can provide a simple reproducable set of XML and XSD files so I can debug this problem that would help.

To answer your questions:

1. XML notepad is not buffering schemas anywhere, but it does remember schemas it has seen before in the Settings.xml file, so you could try and edit that file and remove all past schemas it has listed there, or select File/Clear menu item from the Schemas... dialog.
2. XML notepad will honor the schema specified in the xsi:schemaLocation attribute first, then it matches by XML namespace to any previously seen schema. If there are multiple versions of the schema with the same namespace, then there is no guaranteed order in which it will pick a matching schema (it's a hashtable).
3. Good idea, I will add this feedback in the Schema dialog so you can see which schemas are being applied and perhaps provide a UI so you can change that decision.

Glad you like the tool,
Cheers.
