api to generate sample xml
Is there any api call in xerces that can be used to create a sample
xml file for given xsd file?

Hi Jacob and Michael,
Thanks for quick responses. I will look into both the links provided.
The exact scenario for my application is not fully known yet. The
idea is to map elements in a schema file to some java objects. and
when java objects are initiallized, there is a need to convert the
java objects into xml that is valid as per schema that was mapped. If
this can be done without generating a sample xml file, that is even
better. Please don't hesitate to provide any info that might be
useful.
Best Regards,
Shah Asrani

The answer to Shah's question is no. Xerces has no such API however I don't
think JAXB is what Shah is looking for either. It won't generate sample
instance documents for you. I think there's a generator somewhere in
Eclipse WTP [1] though I've never looked at it. Probably other tools out
there.

You should look at JAXB2 for mapping schemas to XML.
