XSD Code Generator [closed]

Answer 1

Best Answer, bar none:

http://xsd2code.codeplex.com

I pulled my hair out for a full 8 hr work day, got nowhere with all the crappy solutions out there (XSD, CodeXS, XSDObjectGen, and others) and am not interested in paying $400 for the stupid commercial tools just to do this.

Then I came across this codeplex project... WOW! Where was this all my life?

And the best part... its actively being worked on, right NOW (2009), not an abaondoned crust pile from 2004 or some lame thing.

Enjoy!

Answer 2

Try XXSd2Code. It code generates C#, C++, Java and C++/CLI bindings from xsds. XXSd2Code

Answer 3

The XSD.exe utility (which is installed with Visual Studio) is capable of creating an XSD file from an XML file.

Here's the link on MSDN

I believe it may also part of the .NET SDK, meaning you would not need a full-blown Visual Studio installation.

Answer 4

And old question I know but this might help someone: http://www.freeformatter.com/xsd-generator.html. Simple online tool and gets the job done with ease. Perfect for quick XML schema generation.

Answer 5

Visual Studio does it pretty well too... Open XML file.. Choose 'Generate Schema' Command from XML menu

Answer 6

I am a little late to the part, but I find that Businessware Architects CodeXS is very good. I have found that it handles complex schema's much better.
