7.2.3Create DTD/XSD files from XML

Now, let us work in the case that we have an XML file, and we need to create an schema for it. Application Developer provides two wizards to generate the schema from the XML file. To show you how to do this, we are going to use the file Customer.xml which contains the personal data of a customer.

Example 7-1 Customer.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <Root>

<Customer>

<Firstname>John</Firstname>

<Lastname>Doe</Lastname>

<Email>jdoe@dummy.com</Email>
