        I have create a custom pipeline with xml dissasembler and xml validator and I use it to validate my incoming xml files against a schema. The validation works fine to validate the data structure but it doesn't validate the data types at all. I have put a string inside a int field and the validator didn't complaint at all. So, is it normal that data types are not validated?

         If custom pipeline can't be use to validate data types, what's the best approach to acheive that?

        Thanks for your help.

          I tested your Scenario. 

          Input Sample- Age is of type xs:int

          <R1>
            <Age>10abc</Age>
            </R1>

          I got an error in EventViewer as below

          So I think Xml validator is working fine.Seems you are missing something.Have you set the Document Schemas Property of Xml Validator.

          Hope this helps you.

              It does work if you try to put string value in int placeholder.

              but in my case, I’ve a element of type “date” but if is receive a message of date “2010-13-13” it doesnt complain and let that message in. how can i avoid it??
