Hello,

I would like to know how do we "show" the prefixes in the schema we
generate.. for eg.

<xsd:import....> instead of <import>
<xsd:element ..> instead of <element>

thank you.

You can set the qname prefix used to reference the schema for schema
namespace via XSDSchema.setSchemaForSchemaQNamePrefix(). There's also a
map accesible via XSDSchema.getQNamePrefixToNamespaceMap() that defines
all of the namespace qname-namespace pairs to use in the schema. It must
have an entry that agrees with the above schema for schema namespace
prefix, too. So, for the result shown in your example:

XSDSchema schema = XSDFactory.eINSTANCE.createXSDSchema();

schema.setTargetNamespace("http://www.example.com/test");
schema.setSchemaForSchemaQNamePrefix("xsd");

Map namespaceMap = schema.getQNamePrefixToNamespaceMap();
namespaceMap.put(schema.getSchemaForSchemaQNamePrefix(),
XSDConstants.SCHEMA_FOR_SCHEMA_URI_2001);

You'd also want to set a prefix to use for the target namespace. Setting
null makes it the default namespace.

namespaceMap.put(null, schema.getTargetNamespace());

Cheers,
Dave
