Before you begin
Ensure that
you have an application, library, or integration
project in which to create your XML
schema file. If the XML schema file will be used by multiple solutions,
consider creating it in a shared library for ease of reuse.
About this task
You can also use a shared library
to map between different versions of an XML schema file. Both versions
might declare the same elements and types, which cannot coexist in
one application. You can build one shared library that contains version
1 of an XML schema file, and another shared library that contains
version 2. You can then build a map that references the XML schema
files in the shared libraries and maps between the two versions.
At deployment time, separate models are built for each of the shared
libraries. Therefore, no clash results from the duplicated elements
and types.
Procedure
To create an XML schema file, complete the following
steps.
- Click . A window
opens in which you can select a wizard.
- Expand XML, select XML
Schema File, click Next. The Create XML Schema wizard opens.
- Select a parent folder and enter a file name for your XML
schema file.
- Click Finish.
Results
Your XML schema file is displayed under the appropriate application,
library, or
integration
project in the
Application
Development view, and is opened in the XML
Schema editor.
What to do next
- Continue to edit your XML schema by using the XML
Schema editor.
