Re: [xml-dev] Auto schema/xpath generation from doc collection

[George Cristian Bina <george@oxygenxml.com>]

Hi Paul,

To get a schema (Relax NG, XML Schema or DTD) from a set of documents 
you can use Trang. The latest Trang version is available from
http://code.google.com/p/jing-trang/

oXygen XML Editor (http://www.oxygenxml.com) contains a GUI around Trang 
and you should be able to select the list of XML files and specify what 
schema type you want as output. For some details see
http://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/ug-oxygen/converting-between-schema-languages.html

Best Regards,
George
