Importing an XML schema

You can import schemas into the workbench and open them in the XML schema editor. Opening them in the XML schema editor provides you with an opportunity to have a structured view of the XML schema file.

The following instructions were written for the Resource perspective, but they will also work in many other perspectives. 

To import an XML schema into the workbench, follow these steps:

  1. Click File > Import.
  2. Select the import source. Click Next.
  3. Fill in the fields in the Import wizard as necessary. When you are finished, click Finish.

The imported schema now appears in the Navigator view. Double-click it to open it in the XML schema editor.
