NAME
       xsd - Mono's utility for generating schema or class files

SYNOPSIS
       xsd <schema.xsd> /classes [options]

       xsd <schema.xsd> /dataset [options]

       xsd <assembly>.dll|<assembly>.exe [options]

       xsd <instance.xml> [<instance.xml> ...] [options]

DESCRIPTION
       xsd  is a tool for intended to complement the XML serialization support
       of Mono. It can do the following tasks:

       Generate serializable classes
	      From a given XML schema, generate a class that can  be  used  to
	      read  and write xml documents that conform that schema (/classes
	      option).

       Generate typed datasets
	      From a given XML schema, generate a typed DataSet class that can
	      be used to read and write xml documents that conform that schema
	      (/dataset option).

       Generate XML schemas
	      From a given assembly and an optional type name, generate an XML
	      schema  that  can be used to validate the xml documents that can
	      be obtained by serializing objects of that type. If no  type  is
	      provided,	 xsd generates a schema for all types in the assembly.
	      When specifying the assembly name do not include the file exten‐
	      sion  (.dll  or  .exe). xsd will look for the assembly using the
	      standard assembly loading rules.

       Infer XML schemas
	      From a given set of XML documents, infer the XML schema that can
	      be used to validate those documents.

OPTIONS
       The following options are available:

       /element:name /e:name
	      Specifies	 the  name of the XML schema element for which a class
	      or a dataset has to be generated.

       /namespace:name /n:name
	      Specifies the namespace of the  XML  schema  element  for
	      which a class or a dataset has to be generated.

       /language:name /l:name
	      Specifies	 the programming language to use for the gener‐
	      ated code. The only supported languages are CS  (C#)  and
	      VB (Visual Basic.NET).

       /generator:type,assembly /g:type,assembly
	      Indicates xsd.exe to use custom CodeDomProvider to gener‐
	      ate code. The type name must be full name. Assembly  name
	      is  a  local  file  name	that is going to be loaded. The
	      specified Type must have the default constructor.

       /outputdir:path /o:path
	      Specifies the directory where to	generate  the  code  or
	      schemas.

       /type:name /t:name
	      Specifies the full name of the type (including namespace)
	      for which to generate the XML schema.

       /help /h
	      Show usage help.
