Overview
In this example you will learn how to generate an XML schema from a Java model.
Using JAXBContext to Generate an XML Schema
First you must create a class that extends javax.xml.bind.SchemaOutputResolver.
private class MySchemaOutputResolver extends SchemaOutputResolver { public Result createOutput(String namespaceURI, String suggestedFileName) throws IOException { File file = new File(suggestedFileName); StreamResult result = new StreamResult(file); result.setSystemId(file.toURI().toURL().toString()); return result; } }
Then use an instance of this class with JAXBContext to capture the generated XML Schema.
Class[] classes = new Class[4]; classes[0] = org.example.customer_example.AddressType.class; classes[1] = org.example.customer_example.ContactInfo.class; classes[2] = org.example.customer_example.CustomerType.class; classes[3] = org.example.customer_example.PhoneNumber.class; JAXBContext jaxbContext = JAXBContext.newInstance(classes); SchemaOutputResolver sor = new MySchemaOutputResolver(); jaxbContext.generateSchema(sor);
