How to validate an IBM MQ CCDT JSON file against the schema

Question & Answer


Question

You are experimenting with the CCDT JSON text files to connect IBM MQ Client applications with queue managers.
You have successfully tested 2 files that have only 1 channel, and now you want to create another file that has 2 channels, but the 2nd channel does not seem to be found.
.
Now you want to know:
a) How to validate that the contents has a valid JSON format?
b) How to validate that the contents has the proper syntax for a CCDT file in JSON?
+ Note for MQ 9.4 (no change to the schema):
The file ccdt_schema.json delivered in MQ 9.4 has the same contents as in MQ 9.3
