Is svcutil.exe a replacement for xsd.exe?

Question

I am using xsd.exe to generate some c# classes from a .xsd file. I ran into the same issue that is covered here and on other sites where xsd.exe generates Type[] arrays instead

Answer 1

I have tested the same commands on another schema, ang received similar "junk" results from svcutil. So, the might be a way to make it work like xsd.exe, but so far all Ive seen are far less useful ones.

Updated answer: I found that many of these generic arrays of xml nodes were replaced by strong types when all the referenced XSD's are forcibly included. In my case, i have many xsd files all referenced by each other, but svcutil doesnt seem to include them. i had to instead tell it to use *.xsd to get them all.
