How do I create an external XSD and reference it in a WSDL

[Anonymous]

Hi, anyone know how to reference an external schema file in a WSDL.
This is apparently possible from 5.3.1.
I cannot find an example of the procedure and i have quite a few services and they all use a base schema.
It is a pain to constantly track the changes
e.g.

   <wsdl:types>
      <xsd schema>
         <xsd:import>myTypes.xsd</xsd:import>
      </xsd schema>
   </wsdl:types>

rather than

   <wsdl:types>
      <xsd schema>
      <!-- this schema should live in a XSD file that can be imported by all WSDL's -->
      </xsd schema>
      <xsd schema>
      </xsd schema>
   </wsdl:types>

Hi gaimmo
I am not sure it is possible or not right now, I will check it with our colleagues from R&D team, and come back to you asap!

Hi Shong, I stand to correction but thought this was in the new features of 5.3.1.
In my opinion this is a fundamental flaw in Talend as I have quite a few services that all use a base schema and when this base schema requires a change i need to make the change in every WSDL and inevitably screw up in one of them making my schema inconsistent.

Hi Shong, I have managed to get this to work however i am certain this is not entirely correct.
WSDL

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<wsdl:definitions name="ImportSchema"
		xmlns:wsdl="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/"
		xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/wsdl/soap/"
		xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
		xmlns:tns="http://www.talend.org/service/"
		targetNamespace="http://www.talend.org/service/">
	<wsdl:types>
		<xsd:schema xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
			targetNamespace="http://www.talend.org/service/"
			xmlns:pref="http://www.dstv.com/services/DStvTypes/">
			<xsd:import schemaLocation="schemas/DStvTypes.xsd" namespace="http://www.dstv.com/services/DStvTypes/"></xsd:import>
			<xsd:element name="ImportSchemaOperationRequest">
