From GotDotNet to MSDN

Hello All,

My name is Neetu Rajpal and I am a Program Manager in the XML Team. In this post, I want to let you know of a few additions to the XML Downloads section.

The Tools and Utilities in the XML Downloads section has always pointed to our sister GotDotNet site. In an effort to consolidate all XML related information on MSDN, we have now moved the following downloads from GotDotNet to MSDN directly. Below is a short description of what these utilities do.

XSD Object Code Generator
This utility builds C# and VB.NET data structures from an XSD schema that can serialize and de-serialize to XML and other formats. The code generated is an enhanced .NET object library that greatly simplifies working with XSD data structures and XML.

XML Diff and Patch
This utility can be used to identify the differences between two XML documents. You can also use the identified differences (saved in a diffgram) to patch one of the documents. The download includes binaries, source code, samples and documentation.

XSD Inference
This utility can be used to infer an XSD from an instance XML file. The download includes binaries, source code, samples and documentation.

Hope you all find these utilities useful,
Neetu Rajpal
