SchemaAgent - Graphical XML Schema, XSLT, and WSDL file management and modeling tool

XML Schema management tool

Altova SchemaAgent® 2008 is the visionary tool for analyzing and managing relationships among XML Schemas, XML instance documents, XSLT files,and WSDL files, as well as viewing files used in Altova MapForce data mapping projects – across a project, an intranet, or even an enterprise. It allows you to visualize and manage XML file relationships easily via its graphical design view, and create new relationships using drag-and-drop functionality to automatically configure imports, includes, and/or redefines (IIRs).

SchemaAgent automatically finds relevant files in your search path and displays them in its explorer pane for easy navigation. Simply drag a file from the explorer onto the design pane, and SchemaAgent displays it as a graphical component with details about related files, namespaces, global components, and more. A right-click menu lets you add all referenced, referencing, related, and linked XML Schema Definition (XSD), XML instance , XSLT, WSDL, and/or MapForce design (MFD) files as graphical components on the design pane.

Associations between files are indicated by color coded lines linking the graphical components. You can create or change import, include, and redefine (IIR) references by dragging-and-dropping connecting lines between components, and the corresponding code is automatically added to all impacted files. SchemaAgent can be run stand-alone or in client/server mode to share resources in a workgroup. In addition, you can access its XML Schema management functionality while working in the graphical XML Schema editor in XMLSpy.

SchemaAgent® 2008 allows you to:

Connect to any file repository to analyze file relationships	Automatically insert & save required import, include, and/or redefine code in impacted files
Visualize files as graphical components	Build complex XSD, XSLT & WSDL files from smaller components
View details of displayed files (IIRs, global elements, namespaces, etc.)	Re-use standardized components in a modular development approach
Immediately identify linked, referenced & related files	Access SchemaAgent schema components in XMLSpy schema editor
Analyze file relationships based on color coded lines	Save & print graphical SchemaAgent designs to document your XML information architecture
Drag & drop to manage IIR relationships between XSD, XSLT & WSDL files	Understand file dependencies & the impact of every change

Since SchemaAgent allows you to analyze and manage your XML Schema, XSLT, and WSDL files as a pool of resources, you can easily construct complex documents from elements of files distributed about your network. This promotes the design of componentized files on which your group can standardize, and allows you to re-use existing components to reduce development times. SchemaAgent® 2008 is an invaluable tool for visualizing, modeling, and reusing your XML information assets

SchemaAgent integrates seamlessly with XMLSpy, giving you access to all schemas in the SchemaAgent server path - as well as their components - in the XMLSpy info windows and entry helpers. When you insert one of these components, you can choose which schema includes the definition you require, and SchemaAgent will automatically create the required IIR statements. This greatly reduces the complexity associated with schema development and enables the efficient re-use of information assets.
