Hi, An XSDSchema is already in XML.
Torque allows you to define an database schema in XML; OJB uses Torque to generate it's database tables. So, it follows that (Depending upon then complexity of the XSD schema) you should be able to write a XSLT transformation to create the Torque schema. It woulbe something like Schema -> XSLT (Stylesheet) -> Torque-schema.xml -> Torque -> DDL For more info on the Torque see http://db.apache.org/torque/generator/ (Note torque is also a persistency layer. OJB only uses the generator portion of Torque) Cheers, Charles >-----Original Message----- >From: "Rodr�guez Migu�lez, Adolfo" [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] >Sent: 20 August 2003 11:04 >To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Subject: creating DB from an XSD or XML > > >From time ago I am loooking fo a way to do the following. > >Assuming that I have some kind of DTD or XSD for XMLs.
