How to Extract XSD from WSDL

The Extract XSD from WSDL in Java is a good starting point.

Another method is using .NET tools roundtrip which is based on wsdl and svcutil tools. One generates C# classes from WSDL and another generates XSD from C# classes. It usually results in multiple XSD files.

I have extracted PhoenixXML schema using this steps.

1. Look inside WSDL file and find part:

<wsdl:types>
        <s:schema
                elementFormDefault="qualified"
                targetNamespace="http://lbss.com/PhoenixXM/">
            <s:element name="GetSchema">

Extracted content inside

<wsdl:types>
</wsdl:types>

into XSD file.

1. Insert in the begining of the file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>

line.

1. Fix Root Element

<s:schema
        xmlns:s="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
        elementFormDefault="qualified"
        targetNamespace="http://lbss.com/PhoenixXM/"
        xmlns:tns="http://lbss.com/PhoenixXM/">

I had to define XMLSchema namespace and add xmlns:tns, because it was used by the original content.
