XML Schema Editor

New in Oracle JDeveloper 10g, the XML Schema Editor displays the structure, content, and semantics of XML schemas. The Schema Editor is fully integrated with the Structure window, Component Palette, and Property Inspector to support the creation and editing of XML Schemas using simple drag-and-drop operations. At the same time, this Visual Editor is completely synchronized with the XML Schema Definition (XSD) code. The environment allows you to view the code and the Visual Editor simultaneously. Contextual menus enable you to add appropriate elements to easily diagram in the XML Schema Editor Design View.

Key features of the Schema Editor include:

• Synchronized code and diagram views

• Code completion in the Code Editor

• Drag and drop, cut and paste in diagrams

• Expand and collapse any node

• Zoom in and out on schemas

• Navigate schemas with grab scroll
