Generating XSD schemas from UML models

You can create a UML model of an Extensible Markup language (XML) Schema Definition (XSD) schema and use the UML-to-XSD transformation to generate an XSD schema from the model. A schema is a description of the structure of an XML file, which you can use to validate the structure of an XML file.

Before you apply the UML-to-XSD transformation, you should read the information that is available at Modeling > Transform > Configure Transformations. From the Transformations/Configurations list, select UML to XSD. On the Transformation Description page, click View Transformation Documentation.
