Create Xsd From Xml

Posted on

Generates a XSD (XML Schema) from a XML file. Simply copy-paste OR upload your XML document and let the generator figure out the rest. The generator will try to use a 'smart' approach to figure out the data type (you can always refine it after). The generator uses one of 3 designs to generate the XSD (consult xfront.com for more details).

The XSD file format is part of the Extensible Business Reporting Language (XBRL). XSD files are XBRL taxonomies, which are dictionaries used by the language, according to xbrl.org. The Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformations (XSLT) is a programming language in the Extended Markup Language (XML) family, according to msdn.Microsoft.com. To create an XSLT from XSD, you can use Atova’s XMLSpy, Editix Lite or XML Copy Editor.
