Formatting XSD scheme for peer review

Question

I designed a data model which is represented by an XSD scheme. The data model also provides the types that are being used as web service parameters in a WSDL descriptor.

Answer 1

I know the following tools that generate documentation from XML Schema files (XSD):

• xs3p
  • XSLT stylesheet that generates single XHTML from XSD
• xsddoc
  • free / LGPL
  • mainly XSLT based
  • JavaDoc like output
  • see xsddoc examples
• xnsdoc
  • improved commercial version of xsddoc
  • free for personal/educational use
  • JavaDoc like output
• XSDdoc 2.0
  • commercial
  • JavaDoc like output

For small a XML schema, I would probably suggest using the xs3p XSLT stylesheet. For more a complex schema, I suggest using xsddoc.
