Hi,

I'm just discovering the power of xsd.exe, so maybe I'm doing
something wrong.

schema files describing requests and responses. So there is an extra
xsd file for each response and each request as well as some base
schemas, i.e. defining a data type for a result element. Among others
this result element contains a simple enumeration type "ResultState"
which can either be "OK" or "FAILED".

If I use xsd.exe to generate .cs files from the xsd files definining
the complex elements for the requests and responses and then combine
these files in an assembly I get a build error:

   The namespace 'SomeNS' already contains a definition for
'ResultState'

I get this error multiple times as each of the response schemas
references the schema containing the definition of the Result element
which contains the simple datatype "ResultState".

I could edit all the generated .cs files and remove all but one of the
ResultState enum decl's. But I will receive every now and then an
update of the schema files as this system is still in development.

Can anybody enligthen me if I'm doing something wrong? Please note
that I have no control over the xsd schema files. I get these from the
provider of the web service. I can't generate a .cs file for the
schema defining the result element, as this schema contains no top
level element.

Thanks in advance for taking time,
Stefan
