Is the “xsd” command not supported in Visual Studio 2012 command window?

Question

I\'ve read that it is possible to run xsd commands right in visual studio (2010). I have VS 2012 on my machine and when I run

xsd XMLFile.xml

Answer 1

Under Visual Studio 2012, there is a feature called Past Special which generate the class from an xml file.

See here: Paste XML or JSON as classes in Visual Studio.

Note that this feature requires at least .NET 4.5.
