Applies To: XMLAdapter Class
The SOM provides a navigable set of classes that directly reflect the W3C XML Schema Definition (XSD) language specification. These classes make it possible for you to traverse the elements of an XML Schema document and obtain information about properties and declarations and the relationships between them.
For more information about XML SOM ISchema, see the SOM Reference in Microsoft XML Core Services 4.0 reference on the MSDN Library Web site at https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/.
