I am trying to convert xml schema to json schema.
In some reason the json schema that I get is weird, and incorrect. I use Jsonix and Altova XMLSpy 2017
For instance, this is the given xsd
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<schema xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" targetNamespace="http://jaxb.vo.dozer.org/Employee" xmlns:tns="http://jaxb.vo.dozer.org/Employee">
<complexType name="EmployeeType">
<sequence>
<element name="FirstName" type="string" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1"></element>
<element name="BirthDate" type="date" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1"></element>
<element name="LastName" type="string" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1"></element>
</sequence>
</complexType>
<element name="Employee" type="tns:EmployeeType"></element>
<element name="EmployeeWithInnerClass">
<complexType>
<sequence>
<element name="FirstName" type="string" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1"></element>
<element name="BirthDate" type="date" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1"></element>
<element name="LastName" type="string" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1"></element>
<element name="Address">
<complexType>
<sequence>
<element name="Street" type="string"></element>
</sequence>
</complexType>
</element>
</sequence>
</complexType>
</element>
</schema>
And this is the json schema that I got from Jsonix :
var org_dozer_vo_jaxb_employee_Module_Factory = function () {
var org_dozer_vo_jaxb_employee = {
name: 'org_dozer_vo_jaxb_employee',
typeInfos: [{
localName: 'EmployeeType',
typeName: {
namespaceURI: 'http:\/\/jaxb.vo.dozer.org\/Employee',
localPart: 'EmployeeType'
},
propertyInfos: [{
name: 'firstName',
required: true,
elementName: {
localPart: 'FirstName'
}
}, {
name: 'birthDate',
elementName: {
localPart: 'BirthDate'
},
typeInfo: 'Date'
}, {
name: 'lastName',
required: true,
elementName: {
localPart: 'LastName'
}
}]
}, {
localName: 'EmployeeWithInnerClass.Address',
typeName: null,
propertyInfos: [{
name: 'street',
required: true,
elementName: {
localPart: 'Street'
}
}]
}, {
localName: 'EmployeeWithInnerClass',
typeName: null,
propertyInfos: [{
name: 'firstName',
required: true,
elementName: {
localPart: 'FirstName'
}
}, {
name: 'birthDate',
elementName: {
localPart: 'BirthDate'
},
typeInfo: 'Date'
}, {
name: 'lastName',
required: true,
elementName: {
localPart: 'LastName'
}
}, {
name: 'address',
required: true,
elementName: {
localPart: 'Address'
},
typeInfo: '.EmployeeWithInnerClass.Address'
}]
}],
elementInfos: [{
typeInfo: '.EmployeeWithInnerClass',
elementName: {
localPart: 'EmployeeWithInnerClass',
namespaceURI: 'http:\/\/jaxb.vo.dozer.org\/Employee'
}
}, {
typeInfo: '.EmployeeType',
elementName: {
localPart: 'Employee',
namespaceURI: 'http:\/\/jaxb.vo.dozer.org\/Employee'
}
}]
};
return {
org_dozer_vo_jaxb_employee: org_dozer_vo_jaxb_employee
};
};
if (typeof define === 'function' && define.amd) {
define([], org_dozer_vo_jaxb_employee_Module_Factory);
}
else {
var org_dozer_vo_jaxb_employee_Module = org_dozer_vo_jaxb_employee_Module_Factory();
if (typeof module !== 'undefined' && module.exports) {
module.exports.org_dozer_vo_jaxb_employee = org_dozer_vo_jaxb_employee_Module.org_dozer_vo_jaxb_employee;
}
else {
var org_dozer_vo_jaxb_employee = org_dozer_vo_jaxb_employee_Module.org_dozer_vo_jaxb_employee;
}
}
why I got all this functions there? I did something worng?
With Altova XMLSpy the result is different at all:

I'm the author of Jsonix.
Jsonix output you've posted is not the JSON Schema, it is Jsonix mappings for your schema. If you want to generate JSON Schema, add the -generateJsonSchema parameter. See here.
Here's what Jsonix would generate for your schema:

"id":"#",
"definitions":{
"EmployeeWithInnerClass":{
