    copied!<p>If <code>type</code> is what you are talking about then .. It's <code>&lt;xs:Include&gt;</code> not <code>&lt;xs:Import&gt;</code> ..</p> <p>And the answer is : <b>Parser takes care of linking all XSDs together</b></p> <p>see the example below:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt; &lt;root&gt; &lt;child&gt;trial&lt;/child&gt; &lt;child2&gt;trial2&lt;/child2&gt; &lt;trunk&gt; &lt;branch&gt;1&lt;/branch&gt; &lt;branch&gt;2&lt;/branch&gt; &lt;/trunk&gt; &lt;specialchild&gt;test&lt;/specialchild&gt; &lt;/root&gt; </code></pre> <p>For the above XML I will design an XSD:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt; &lt;xs:schema attributeFormDefault="unqualified" elementFormDefault="qualified" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"&gt; &lt;xs:include schemaLocation="include multiple XSDs2.xsd"/&gt; &lt;xs:element name="root" type ="root"/&gt; &lt;xs:complexType name="root"&gt; &lt;xs:sequence&gt; &lt;xs:element name="child" type="xs:string" /&gt; &lt;xs:element name="child2" type="xs:string" /&gt; &lt;xs:element name="trunk" type="trunk"/&gt; &lt;xs:element name="specialchild" type="specialchild"/&gt; &lt;/xs:sequence&gt; &lt;/xs:complexType&gt; &lt;/xs:schema&gt; </code></pre> <p>where type trunk is defined in <code>import multiple XSDs2.xsd</code> file and linked by using <code>&lt;xs:include&gt;</code> .. (which is residing in the same folder).. And the code looks like this:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt; &lt;xs:schema attributeFormDefault="unqualified" elementFormDefault="qualified" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"&gt; &lt;xs:include schemaLocation="include multiple XSDs3.xsd"/&gt; &lt;xs:complexType name="trunk"&gt; &lt;xs:sequence&gt; &lt;xs:element maxOccurs="unbounded" name="branch" type="branch" /&gt; &lt;/xs:sequence&gt; &lt;/xs:complexType&gt; &lt;/xs:schema&gt; </code></pre> <p>and type branch is a simple type defined in <code>include multiple XSDs3.xsd</code> file, and the code looks like this:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?&gt; &lt;xs:schema attributeFormDefault="unqualified" elementFormDefault="qualified" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"&gt; &lt;xs:simpleType name="branch"&gt; &lt;xs:restriction base="xs:string"/&gt; &lt;/xs:simpleType&gt; &lt;xs:simpleType name="specialchild"&gt; &lt;xs:restriction base="xs:string"/&gt; &lt;/xs:simpleType&gt; &lt;/xs:schema&gt; </code></pre> <p>*<strong>Now the tricky part is: <code>specialchild</code> is declared in <code>XSD_1</code> where as defined in <code>XSD_3</code> and these two XSDs are linked by <code>XSD_2</code>.. You can observe that parser by default takes care of linking all XSDs and treating them all as one! *</strong></p> <p>Hope this solves your question!</p>
