Almost 4 years ago, I compared XSD.EXE to some on-line tools. Time for a follow-up.
From the old post:
- Online Flame-Ware XML-2-XSD 2.0
- HiT Software XML utilities (registration required)
- XmlForAsp XML Schema Generator
XML Utilities has since then moved to a new domain: www.xmlutilities.net; the other 2 are still at their original locations.
New on-line generators I got pointed at by Mark O’Connor’s stackoverflow answer:
- Free Online XSD/XML Schema Generator From XML – FreeFormatter.com.
- XML to XSD Generater Online – xmlGrid.net.
Neither of them can generate the XML types separately like XmlForAsp XML Schema Generator does.
But the first one does get attributes right, whereas all the others often skip some or all of the attributes.
