<h2><a name="xmlvalidate">XMLValidate</a></h2>
<h3>Description</h3>

<p>This task checks xml files are valid (or only well formed). The
task uses the SAX2 parser implementation provided by JAXP by default
(probably the one that is used by Ant itself), but one can specify any
SAX1/2 parser if needed.</p>
