XSD Document Properties

To view or edit an XSD document's properties, double-click its Browser or list entry. The property sheet tabs and fields listed here are those available by default, before any customization of the interface by you or an administrator.

The General tab contains the following properties:

Property

Description

Name/Code/Comment

Identify the object. The name should clearly convey the object's purpose to non-technical users, while the code, which is used for generating code or scripts, may be abbreviated, and should not normally include spaces. You can optionally add a comment to provide more detailed information about the object. By default the code is generated from the name by applying the naming conventions specified in the model options. To decouple name-code synchronization, click to release the = button to the right of the Code field.

Stereotype

Extends the semantics of the object. You can enter a stereotype directly in this field, or add stereotypes to the list by specifying them in an extension file.

Target namespace

Specifies the URI (Uniform Resource Identifier) reference that uniquely identifies the data schema and avoids conflicts with other data schemas with the same name.

Schema location

Specifies the URI (Uniform Resource Identifier) reference for the location from which the data schema was imported.

Schema model

Specifies the reference to an XML model that represents the data schema. You can select a model from the list or use the tools to the right of the list to create a model and view the properties of the currently selected model.

Keywords

Provide a way of loosely grouping objects through tagging. To enter multiple keywords, separate them with commas.

XML NameSpaces Tab

This tab displays a list of XML namespaces prefixes used by the WSDL file, which can reference included data schema namespaces or any external namespace. For more information about using this tab, see Service Provider Properties.

Schema Tab

This tab specifies the message part definition details. You can enter any appropriate information in this field, as well as open, insert and save text files. The first lines of the schema display the XML version, encoding format, and namespace details.
