This article is out of date and is provided for those still using older schemas. For information regarding the current XSD Schemas go here.
XML provides a syntactical foundation for creating labeled document structures in all kinds of styles and flavors. XML 1.0 came with a set of tools for describing those structures, Document Type Definitions (DTDs), but that set of tools both used its own syntax and didn't address the needs of data-centric fields into which XML quickly advanced. A n...

This article describes how to take an XML schema, and generate a set of wrapper classes from it that allow you to manipulate an XML document via simple strongly typed objects. Thus removing the need for developers to get bogged down in the complexities of schemas or deal with the nuts and bolts of MSXML....

Now that the XML Schema specification is one step away from becoming a W3C Recommendation, it is a good time to take a closer look at the new improved way to declare document type definitions. As mentioned in column10, DTDs have a number of limitations: The syntax of a DTD is different from XML, requiring the document writer to learn yet another notation, and the software to have yet another parser There is no way to specify datatypes and data formats that could be used to automatically m.....

Indicators are specially used to control the occurrences of elements in different orders. Sometimes, we may want certain elements to occur only once, or certain elements may not be in a particular order, or certain elements may not be necessary at all (optional) and so on. We can handle these kinds of issues by using indicators....

Stylus Studio® includes a visual XML Schema-to-XML Schema mapping tool that allows you to easily implement sophisticated XML data mappings involving multiple data sources and customized data processing using either XSLT or XQuery code. The process is simple — just load one or more target data sources (note that you can use any data source, for example, XML Schema(s), relational database(s), EDI files, flat files, etc.), visually create the mapping from your data source(s) to a desired output for...

Originally, SGML was the flavour of the month. SGML documents were structured using DTDs. With the advent of XML, the DTD had some good features and some bad features. Before we discuss the various types of schemas. While Schemas will definitely figure in your future projects, a consensus view is that the final proposal of the working group on Schemas will not look like the current implementation of Schemas within Microsoft IE5. For example, in August 1998 the Schema syntax changed substantia...

XML Schemas express shared vocabularies and allow machines to carry out rules made by people. They provide a means for defining the structure, content and semantics of XML documents. The XML Activity Statement explains the W3C''s work on this topic in more detail. XML Schema has recently (2000-10-24) been advanced to Candidate Recommendation status, see reference list for pointers....
