[Xml-compile] Checking XML - simple tool

[Patrick Powell]

I have a set of XML SOAP exchanges.   One toolset is saying that there 
is an error when it receives
the XML generated by the XML::compile toolset.  For example:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<SOAP-ENV:Envelope 
xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"
xmlns:SOAP-ENC="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
xmlns:tmdd="http://www.tmdd.org/3/messages"
xmlns:lds="http://www.specsol.com/lds"
xmlns:ldsservice="http://center-services"
xmlns:ldsdata="http://www.specsol.com/ldsdata">
   <SOAP-ENV:Body>
     <SOAP-ENV:Fault>
       <faultcode>SOAP-ENV:Client</faultcode>
       <faultstring>Validation constraint violation: occurrence
       violation in element \'SOAP-ENV:Body\'</faultstring>
     </SOAP-ENV:Fault>
   </SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>

I have the HTTP exchange and XML that caused this error.


Question:   is there a simple way to create an utility that I can give 
the request XML
and have it parse it?   i.e. - as the XML::Compile server does, parse 
the input string
and then,  instead of calling a callback,  return a 'trace' element and 
the Perl Hash
for the XML content?

I was thinking that this would be similar to the 'example.pl' script 
that you sent me.

I think that this would make a GREAT debugging tool for other users as 
well...
