DFDL is not suited for XML formatted messages, you would need the XML parsers for that.
If you mean mxsd files, the definition you got from MRM messages, those you can't import as far as I know.

Thanks for the reply.
So, here is the story:
We are upgrading our application from WMB v7 to ACE 13.. In WMB v7 we are using Message sets for incoming MRM format messages. So as you said MRM is getting deprecated, we are planning to change the MRM(Message Set thing) to DFDL Modelling. What I have is XSDs of the Message Sets we are using in version 7. Now, in ACE 13 I have created a DFDL model under one static Lib and using the old Schema(XSD schema we have for MRM) for it:

So, my question is will the old XSD will work or I need to create a DFDL schema from scratch for each WMB interfaces?
Or is there any way I can create a DFDL schema from XML Schema.

Hi Parul
If I'm not mistaken, Message Sets (MRM) have been deprecated (deprecated, not removed) from v11 onward. Message Models (DFDL) are the way forward.
A Message Set that has been created specifically for MRM can't be reused as is for DFDL, you will need to create a new DFDL Message Model.
I have created a static library (Btw, have a look at shared libraries, they are better - unless you have a very specific need for maintaining schema's per application) that contains both an mrm and dfdl entry

And they are not cross-compatible

If you want to use the DFDL parses, you need to create a DFDL Message Model.
If I am completely missing the ball here, and you are trying to do something else, please let me know. And maybe share your code and/or application/library setup.

Thanks for the checking Francis.
Yes, I have given the reference of the static lib to my application. The suspect thing is the XSD I'm taking is working for MRM format. Is the same will work for DFDL domain as well? Or we need some changes to be implemented for DFDL XSD files?

Hi Parul,
Can you check if the static library is referenced in your application? If that is not the case the dfdl will not show up.

I have created a static library where I have created a Message Modelling (DFDL -> XML Schema). As an input I have MQ input node. whereas in its property I selected DFDL message domain for input message parsing. Now when I am trying to browse the message it is coming blank.
PS: My XML schema is correct (I have validated it already).
