XSD editor: Enable to choose the root element of the XML Schema and to save the tree representation to the XML file

[tatra603]

Hello,

I would like to ask You to add a feature to the XML Schema Editor. I would like to be able to choose the root element of the XML Schema and to save the visual tree representation (already implemented in current oXygen) to the XML file. Running this task from command line would be also highly appreciated.

Use case: To be able to compare and to identify same XML Schemas defined in different ways. To be able to further process the tree representation of the XML Schema using e. g. XSL-T to produce mapping in non XSL-T languague.Now we are running such task by custom Java application using XSOM, but the result are far from ideal target. oXygen has this functionality already implemented up to saving to XML and running from command line.

I already consulted it by Octavian on XML Prague 2016.

Thank You in advance, Stepan

Hi Stepan,

I already added an issue with your feature request.
A solution can be to change the flattenSchema and allow to specify also the root element to start from.

Hi, Octavian,

I sent You the e-mail to support@oxygenxml.com, because I attached there a long output example and some code, which is too long to be pasted it here.
