I have a xsd file:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xs:schema xmlns:xs="htp://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">

<xs:element name="note">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="to" type="xs:string"/>
<xs:element name="from" type="xs:string"/>
<xs:element name="heading" type="xs:string"/>
<xs:element name="body" type="xs:string"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>

</xs:schema>

and parse it by org.eclipse.xsd.util.XSDParser to org.eclipse.xsd.XSDSchema and question is how find element to,from,heading and body inside XSDSchema? The only element that i found is note.
any advice which can help?

XSDElementDeclaration has getAnonymousTypeDefinition for this particular
case (a contained anonymous type), or, more generally,
getTypeDefinitition for the type of the element, regardless of whether
it's contained or referenced by name. Looking at how
XSDProtypicalSchema builds instances is likely to help you understand
how to traverse them. A generic way to walk everything is
Resource.getAllContents().

Hi, I have a simple code from XSDPrototypicalSchema and its clear :

XSDSchema xsdSchema=XSDSchema.class.newInstance();
    XSDComplexTypeDefinition usAddress = xsdFactory.createXSDComplexTypeDefinition();
    usAddress.setName("USAddress");
    
    XSDModelGroup usAddressSequence = xsdFactory.createXSDModelGroup();
    usAddressSequence.setCompositor(XSDCompositor.SEQUENCE_LITERAL);
    XSDParticle usAddressParticle = xsdFactory.createXSDParticle();
    usAddressParticle.setContent(usAddressSequence);
    
    XSDElementDeclaration street = xsdFactory.createXSDElementDeclaration();
    street.setName("street");
    street.setTypeDefinition(xsdSchema.getSchemaForSchema().resolveSimpleTypeDefinition("string"));
    XSDParticle streeParticle = xsdFactory.createXSDParticle();
    streeParticle.setContent(street);
    usAddressSequence.getContents().add(streeParticle);

    XSDElementDeclaration city = xsdFactory.createXSDElementDeclaration();
    city.setName("city");
    city.setTypeDefinition(xsdSchema.getSchemaForSchema().resolveSimpleTypeDefinition("string"));
    XSDParticle cityParticle = xsdFactory.createXSDParticle();
    cityParticle.setContent(city);
    usAddressSequence.getContents().add(cityParticle);

    usAddress.setContent(usAddressParticle);

    XSDAttributeDeclaration country = xsdFactory.createXSDAttributeDeclaration();
    country.setName("country");
    country.setTypeDefinition(xsdSchema.getSchemaForSchema().resolveSimpleTypeDefinition("NMTOKEN"));
    XSDAttributeUse countryAttributeUse = xsdFactory.createXSDAttributeUse();
    countryAttributeUse.setContent(country);
    countryAttributeUse.setConstraint(XSDConstraint.FIXED_LITERAL);
    countryAttributeUse.setLexicalValue("US");
    usAddress.getAttributeContents().add(countryAttributeUse);
    
    xsdSchema.getContents().add(usAddress);

input will be:

<xsd:complexType name="USAddress">
             <xsd:sequence>
                 <xsd:element name="name" type="xsd:string"/>
                 <xsd:element name="street" type="xsd:string"/>
                 <xsd:element name="city" type="xsd:string"/>
                 <xsd:element name="state" type="xsd:string"/>
                 <xsd:element name="zip" type="xsd:string"/>
             </xsd:sequence>
             <xsd:attribute fixed="US" name="country" type="xsd:NMTOKEN"/>
         </xsd:complexType>

but how from xsdSchema object get this simple structur? Almost all objects has inside Contents (EList) where can be everything(XSDComplexTypeDefinition, XSDParticial, XSDSequence ...). Could you provide more details about "generic way to walk everything", XSDSchema has a method eResource() but it gives null.

xsdSchema.getContents() contains it so you can iterate over that list.

Yes.

EObject.eContents() generically returns all the contained EObjects.
EObject.eAllContents() is an iterator that (like
Resource.getAllContents(), will walk the entire containment tree.

How do I from XSDSchema receive org.eclipse.emf.common.util.URI? (org.eclipse.xsd.util.XSDPrototypicalSchema method printSchema(String xsdSchemaURI))

You can use things like an <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://">http://</a>... URI pointing to a schema on

Thanks Ed for help, now it's more understandable, but still I have some questions...
for example:

<xs:complexType name="company">
    <xs:sequence minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1">
      <xs:element  name="name" type="xs:string"/>
      <xs:element  name="street" type="xs:string"/>
      <xs:element  name="postCode" type="xs:string"/>
      <xs:element  name="city" type="xs:string"/>
    </xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>

It is

org.eclipse.xsd.XSDComplexTypeDefinition

object, and how do I check how many tags are inside?
best regards

What do you mean by "tags"?

Sorry, I wasn't precise, in schema code we see that complexType "company" contains 4 elements: name, street, postCode, city. How do I check it in java and how do I check that city is a last element in company complexType.

Probably you want to consider the logical content type because it will
take inheritance into account:

Open Declaration
<eclipse-open:%E2%98%82=org.eclipse.xsd/src%3Corg.eclipse.xsd%7BXSDComplexTypeDefinition.java%E2%98%83XSDComplexTypeDefinition%7EgetContentType>XSDComplexTypeContent
<eclipse-javadoc:%E2%98%82=org.eclipse.xsd/src%3Corg.eclipse.xsd%7BXSDComplexTypeDefinition.java%E2%98%83XSDComplexTypeDefinition%7EgetContentType%E2%98%82XSDComplexTypeContent>
org.eclipse.xsd.XSDComplexTypeDefinition
<eclipse-javadoc:%E2%98%82=org.eclipse.xsd/src%3Corg.eclipse.xsd%7BXSDComplexTypeDefinition.java%E2%98%83XSDComplexTypeDefinition>.getContentType()

Returns the value of the '/*Content Type*/' reference.

This represents the value of the content type
<http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-1/#content_type> infoset property.
It is computed from the |content
<eclipse-javadoc:%E2%98%82=org.eclipse.xsd/src%3Corg.eclipse.xsd%7BXSDComplexTypeDefinition.java%E2%98%83XSDComplexTypeDefinition%7EgetContentType%E2%98%82%E2%98%82getContent%E2%98%82>|
and should typically not be modified directly. It will be |null|, an
|XSDSimpleTypeDefinition
<eclipse-javadoc:%E2%98%82=org.eclipse.xsd/src%3Corg.eclipse.xsd%7BXSDComplexTypeDefinition.java%E2%98%83XSDComplexTypeDefinition%7EgetContentType%E2%98%82XSDSimpleTypeDefinition>|,
or an |XSDParticle
<eclipse-javadoc:%E2%98%82=org.eclipse.xsd/src%3Corg.eclipse.xsd%7BXSDComplexTypeDefinition.java%E2%98%83XSDComplexTypeDefinition%7EgetContentType%E2%98%82XSDParticle>|.

xsd file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<xsd:schema xmlns:xsd="htp://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
	<xsd:annotation>
		<xsd:documentation>Description .</xsd:documentation>
	</xsd:annotation>
	<xsd:element name="application">
		<xsd:complexType>
			<xsd:sequence>
				<xsd:element name="applicant">
					<xsd:complexType>
						<xsd:sequence>
							<xsd:element name="father_name">
								<xsd:simpleType>
									<xsd:restriction base="xsd:string">
										<xsd:maxLength value="50"/>
									</xsd:restriction>
								</xsd:simpleType>
							</xsd:element>

						<xsd:restriction base="xsd:date"/>
					</xsd:simpleType>
				</xsd:element>
			</xsd:sequence>
		</xsd:complexType>
	</xsd:element>
</xsd:schema>

Body of method

String fileName = "c:\\ParserXSDExample\\b\\4.xsd";
		XSDSchema xsdSchema = null;
		XSDParser parser = null;
		
		try {
			parser = XSDParser.class.newInstance();
			parser.parse(fileName);
			xsdSchema = parser.getSchema();
		} catch (InstantiationException e) {
			e.printStackTrace();
		} catch (IllegalAccessException e) {
			e.printStackTrace();
		}

		int counter = 1;
		Document docu = xsdSchema.getDocument();
		TreeIterator<EObject> iterator = xsdSchema.eAllContents();
		while (iterator.hasNext()) {
			EObject object = (EObject) iterator.next();
			System.out.println(counter + "). element " + object.getClass());

			if (object instanceof XSDElementDeclaration) {
				XSDElementDeclaration xsdED=(XSDElementDeclaration) object;
				System.out.println(xsdED.getName());
			}
			counter++;
		}

and it produces:

application
applicant
father_name
birthday
date

And it is OK, but expected output should looks like:

application
  applicant
    father_name
    birthda
  applicant-Close
  date
application-Close

My problem is that I don't know how check that:
-element applicant is inside other element(application)(applicant has a parent)
-no more elements are inside applicant after birthda(birthday is last children)

There's no example that shows to do this. The examples show how to use
a resource set. Why are you doing this? It doesn't build a schema so I
don't see how it produces output like what you show.
