Addresses issue in NeurodataWithoutBorders/pynwb#1777
In short,
validate(paths=[nwbfile_path])
performs the expected behavior of validating against all cached namespaces in the file except for dependent ones andvalidate(io=io)
does not. Changingvalidate(io=io)
to perform the expected behavior would be a breaking change in pynwb. I think we should make that breaking change in pynwb as soon as possible, but given the urgency of the issue and thatvalidate(paths=[nwbfile_path])
does the expected behavior, I think we should also change nwbinspector to usevalidate(paths=[nwbfile_path])
now.
