XMI to XSD? [message #76855]

I have created an ecore-diagram from which I can get an XMI-file. Is there
an easy way for me to translate this into an XSD-file for my diagram? I
suppose I could just write one from scratch, but it would of course be a
lot easier if there was some program/translator that could do it for me :)

Thanks,
Anna

Anna,

You're looking to convert an Ecore instance to an XSD instance? If you
have a *.genmodel open, you can use Generator->Export from the menu bar.

Yes, that seems to be exactly what I wanted. I might have to do a more
"general" XSD-file too (not containing all the ecore-stuff that this one
does), but that shouldn't be to hard now when I can look at this one.

Thanks a lot!
