Xml Schema parser

Hello,
Given the following line of code;
SchemaParser sparser = new SchemaParser(schemaParserFile.toURI().toURL());
The URL points to an xml file.

How could one print/show the content of sparser?
I have tried; System.out.print(sparser.getConstraints()); but nothing get printed. it could be that it is empty.
Also, if the xml file does not have "constraints" then the method getContraints might have nothing to get.
I was hoping it would read/get the tags, but it does not seem like it does.
Any suggestions?

If you are using SchemaParser from this package:
http://oodt.jpl.nasa.gov/metadata-service/apidocs/jpl/eda/metadata/validation/package-summary.html

Then it appears you get the constraints that the Schema defines as a Map. The API for the Constraint object itself can be found on same link above.

Otherwise, please provide the package you are using SchemaParser from.

mwvisa1, while I got the code from here; http://www.javaworld.com/jw-11-2000/Validation/src.zip
I have debugged it some. If you need to see the debugged version, please let me know.

mwvisa1, I looked at the link that you provided and it is the package I am using. How then could I look at the Map? The xml file I am working with does not provide constraints. It provides tags and it is these tags information that I am hoping to parse.
