ISO 19115-3 rules validation for "Associated resources" never validates

[chiarachiarelli]

Trying to add one or more "Associated resource" with "Association Type" and "Initiative Type" the ISO validator for ISO19115-3 gives 10 times the same error "When a resource is associated, a name or a metadata reference MUST be specified" which though doesn't seem resolvable.

Here follows an exampe of xml that gives 10 times the same error: "When a resource is associated, a name or a metadata reference MUST be specified."

        <mri:associatedResource>
            <mri:MD_AssociatedResource>
               <mri:name>
                  <cit:CI_Citation>
                     <cit:title>
                        <gco:CharacterString>EU Project: Weburn - IEA (International Energy Agency) Weyburn CO2 monitoring and storage project</gco:CharacterString>
                     </cit:title>
                  </cit:CI_Citation>
               </mri:name>
               <mri:associationType>
                  <mri:DS_AssociationTypeCode codeList="http://standards.iso.org/iso/19139/resources/gmxCodelists.xml#DS_AssociationTypeCode"
                                              codeListValue="dependency"/>
               </mri:associationType>
               <mri:initiativeType>
                  <mri:DS_InitiativeTypeCode codeList="http://standards.iso.org/iso/19139/resources/gmxCodelists.xml#DS_InitiativeTypeCode"
                                             codeListValue="project"/>
               </mri:initiativeType>
            </mri:MD_AssociatedResource>
         </mri:associatedResource>

I'm investigating this and I found that the reason why it happens is that in the schematron rules file, the variable where the associated resource name is stored is empty.

I'm referring to the variable $nameTitle here: https://github.com/metadata101/iso19115-3.2018/blob/24ae19dddd0cd791d3978f8e99e080798eef001e/src/main/plugin/iso19115-3.2018/schematron/schematron-rules-iso.sch#L1536

I also checked with a online XPath tester that the context xpath of the rule is correct.

Hope these findings can be helpful.

Maybe it is related to #4805, geonetwork expects a uuid, not a hyperink?

The problem is that the metadata validated is enhanced with the geonet namespace, to link the UI elements with the validation rules. The rule matches any element in //mri:MD_DataIdentification/mri:associatedResource/*, checking also these elements and causing the validation error.

Going to update it to discard elements in the geonet namespace
