XSD Schema diagram using Eclipse

Eclipse has an XML perspective which is handy for developing XML and XML Schemas (XSD). One nice this is that it allows you to create a diagram(png) of the schema, however it seems to only do one level at a time. My XSD contains a number of complex types each type may refer to one or more complex sub-types, I just want a nice diagram of the entire (from top level to the bottom level) structure. Any ideas of how to do this in Eclipse?

Regards

  • Given that you have installed EMF (Eclipse Modeling Framework), you can do the following to create a diagram of your XSD.

    enter image description here enter image description here enter image description here enter image description here enter image description here enter image description here enter image description here enter image description here enter image description here enter image description here enter image description here Finish by double clicking the text which says to double click.. then you end up with a diagram of the XSD. enter image description here
