Yessir. My message was just a warning to be careful. Use the tool if you must but not as the first option.

I've had several cases Todd where the customer provided sample XML but there was no schema. This was a lot faster that ploughing through the XML.

I agree that it may not be perfect - but that wasn't what I was looking for.

I would be a little bit hesitant to use a schema generator, much like writing code first and then doing the design work. I'm not saying it cannot work but be careful.

Thanks,

Michael - have you tried this:
http://www.freeformatter.com/xsd-generator.html

I found it quite useful recently in a similar situation to yours where I could not get the sequencing right. You simply paste in a section of your XML and it writes a basic xsd for you which you can then refine.

Various other transforms/checks on the site as well.

Sorry I didn't think to suggest this earlier.

Thanks Todd and Grizz. I will investigate both of these. Looks like
that's the path I want to be on!

Michael,

I think the problem is that you don't have a parent element to
contain the repeating elements. Try something like the schema below.
Please let me know if this works for you.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <xsd:schema
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"; xmlns:tst="
http://ws.example.com/test"; attributeFormDefault="unqualified"
elementFormDefault="qualified" targetNamespace="http://ws.example.com/test";
xml:lang="en">
<xsd:annotation>
<xsd:documentation xml:lang="en">Test store web
service</xsd:documentation>
</xsd:annotation>

<xsd:element name="documentName">
<xsd:complexType>
<xsd:sequence>
<xsd:element name="store" type="xsd:string" />
<xsd:element name="repeater" type="tst:RepeaterType" />
</xsd:sequence>
</xsd:complexType>
</xsd:element>

<xsd:complexType name="ItemType">
<xsd:sequence>
<xsd:element name="sku" type="xsd:string" />
<xsd:element name="promo" type="xsd:string" />
<xsd:element name="zip" type="xsd:string" />
</xsd:sequence>
</xsd:complexType>

<xsd:complexType name="RepeaterType">
<xsd:annotation>
<xsd:documentation>Repeating element</xsd:documentation>
</xsd:annotation>
<xsd:sequence>
<xsd:element name="item" type="tst:ItemType" minOccurs="1"
maxOccurs="10" />
</xsd:sequence>
</xsd:complexType>
</xsd:schema>

Thanks,
Todd

Subject: [WEB400] WSDL - Mix simple and complex types

Ok...I've worked with WSDLs to define web services, but it's always
been the clone and go type model. I'm running into a problem now
that I can't seem to resolve. Here's the gist: I want to have a web
service that accepts a store number, and then up to 10 groups of
SKU, promo and zip. I'm trying
this:

<xsd:element name="inStore">
<xsd:simpleType>
<xsd:restriction base="xsd:string" /> </xsd:simpleType>
</xsd:element> <xsd:element name="eCommercePromosOperation">
<xsd:complexType> <xsd:sequence minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="10">
<xsd:element name="inSKU"
type="xsd:string"></xsd:element> <xsd:element name="inPromoNum"
type="xsd:string"></xsd:element> <xsd:element name="inZip"
type="xsd:string"></xsd:element> </xsd:sequence> </xsd:complexType>
</xsd:element>

But SoapUI only shows the complex type, like this (in the request):

<ecom:eCommercePromosOperation>
<inSKU>?</inSKU>
<inPromoNum>?</inPromoNum>
<inZip>?</inZip>
</ecom:eCommercePromosOperation>

Any ideas? Thanks!
