Chapter 3. ASN.1 to XML Schema Conversion

Table of Contents

Mapping of Top-Level Constructs
Mapping of ASN.1 Types

The ASN1C compiler contains the capability of generating corresponding XML Schema type definitions from ASN.1 types. This capability is also present in a free online tool (ASN2XSD) that may be accessed via the following URL:

ASN.1 types are converted to XML Schema and ASN.1 values are converted to XML. ASN.1 value sets, which are essentially a set of constraints, get converted to facets in XML Schema.
