Reverse engineering XSD
« on: August 12, 2005, 02:34:34 am »
I have the need to create an UML model representing an XML Schema defined through an XSD file.

I think that an XSL transformation from the XSD to an XMI model, could help in the reverse-engineering process.

Did anyone find this problem interesting or is aware of already developed tools?

Regards,

Massimo

thanks, Thomas.

I have read the thread, now it will be useful to understand the planned "release" of this feature, in order to decide if it is better to implement a "skeleton" transform to fulfill my basic requirements or wait for the packaged feature.

One option is the [free] hyperModel plugin for Eclipse. It produces UML 1.3 XMI 1.0 with UML Profile for XML Schema, can be imported in EA.

I have quickly tried it, with XBRL specifications, and it worked smoothly! Thanks.
