Visual Studio uses xsd files to provide intellisense for xml files that matches the namespace. I have created custom xml schema and I want to apply that schema when user is editing that type of document containing my namespace. I can manually keep my xsd somewhere and I can get intellisense correctly. But I want to deploy this schema along with VSIX installer so that it is applied automatically.

I need to setup this with VSIX, I know which folder to install to, but I am new to VSIX and if there is a way I can install Content "XSD" to specific folder I am done.

Unfortunately, deployment of XSD's via VSIX is not supported in Visual Studio 2010.

  • Do you know if this is still true of newer Visual Studios? – Drew Noakes Nov 08 '16 at 15:36

    Starting with Visual Studio 2017 you can install XSD to the Visual Studio Schema folder. See: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/extensibility/set-install-root – Vizu Nov 30 '17 at 11:00
