# Importing an XML Schema

Previous

Next

The first step in configuring an EIS project (using XML records) or XML project is importing the XML schema(s) that your project uses.

When you import a schema, you define a schema reference that gives TopLink the information it needs to locate the schema itself. Anytime after you import an XML schema, you can update the schema reference (see "Configuring XML Schema Reference") if necessary.

After importing an XML schema, you can configure XML schema namespaces (see "Configuring XML Schema Namespace").

To import an XML schema into an EIS project (using XML records) or an EIS project, use this procedure:

1. Right-click the schemas element in the Navigator and select Import Schema from the context menu. The Import Schema dialog box appears.

2. Fill the Import Schema dialog box with data, and then click OK. TopLink Workbench will add the schema to the project.

To reimport a specific schema, right-click on the specific schema in the Navigator and select Reimport Schema from the context menu.

To reimport all schemas in a project, right-click on Schemas in the Navigator and select Reimport All Schemas from the context menu.

To change a schema's source, right-click on the specific schema in the Navigator window and select Properties from the context menu. The Schema Properties dialog appears.
