7.3 Generate a HTML from an XSD

We can generate a HTML document to describe how the XSD file is designed. This document is similar to make a Java doc when creating documentation of classes. To generate the documentation of an XSD file follow the next steps:

1.Select passengerList.xsd file.

2.Right-clickGenerate—>HTML Doc.

3.Enter the folder to store the documentation.

4.Enter the HTML file name. Click Finish.

Figure 7-5 is showing the result of this process.
