Hi everyone,
RIA Team is developing XSD-To-AS3 Class Generator, a simple Air app that allow developers to quickly build any Flex/Flash app XML based.

It takes an XML schema and an XML document and uses it to generate a class library. These classes map directly to data contained in your XML Schema, the generated classes is strongly typed, it forms a kind of template for the developer, ensuring that the data created conforms the underlying XML Schema.

It will be very usefull for quickly work with 3th party API RESTful interface!

Try it @Adobe Air Marketplace

Any progress on this matter ? I’m quite interested in using, testing or helping on this!

I'd love to see an XSD -> actionscript utility. I've been using CodeSynthesis' XSD for parsing COLLADA files in C++ using the schema, and it makes a lot of sense. Microsoft's xsd.exe (part of .Net) can generate *javascript* from XSD... maybe there's a way to call the .js from the flash, or to convert the .js to .as...? Not a pleasant solution though. Tim

I don’t agree at all on having XML generating AS3 classes, but for the CLI thing you have few options

1) use command line arguments to launch an AIR app
2) look into Tamarin, it’s the AVM running in a command line, in short you can write AS3 code running into a CLI
