It resolved my problem, thank you.

I am pretty sure this is due to the schema not being found when you use
absolute paths. In your instance document you probably have something
like this:

xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.example.com/foo foo.xsd"

When schema processor sees a declaration like this it will search for
foo.xsd in the directory relative to the document instance, in your
case this directory will be ./examples/.

There are several ways to resolve this:


(1) Disable validation by the underlying XML parser by passing the
    xml_schema::flags::dont_validate flag to one of the parsing
functions,
    e.g.:

    query::queries_(dataFile.c_str(), xml_schema::flags::dont_validate)


(2) Programmatically override the schema path from XML document with an
    absolute path. This is described in the C++/Tree Mapping FAQ #2.4:

    You may also find other questions and answers in Section 2,
"Validation
    and Parsing" useful.
