How to create required object types manually ?

Question

Hi all,
I got this XML schema entry:
<xs:element name="Chapters"
minOccurs="0"
maxOccurs="1"
xdb:SQLName="CHAPTERS"
          xdb:SQLType="XDB_CHAPTERS_TYPE">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="Chapter"
          xdb:SQLName="CHAPTER"
xdb:SQLCollType="XDB_CHAPTERS_COLLECTION"               
               minOccurs="1"
               maxOccurs="unbounded"
               xdb:SQLType="XDB_CHAPTER_DETAILS_TYPE">
     <xs:complexType>
          <xs:simpleContent>
          <xs:extension base="xs:string">
          <xs:attribute name="No"
                    type="xs:positiveInteger"
                    xdb:SQLName="NO"/>
          </xs:extension>
          </xs:simpleContent>
     </xs:complexType>
     </xs:element>
     </xs:sequence>
     </xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
which results in this entry in a XML file:
<Chapters>
<Chapter No="12">The Longest Time</Chapter>
</Chapters>
Question: How do I have to create the corresponding object type, which is required for XML schema registration ?
Any help is appreciated...

Hi Markus
I don't know why you want to manually creates the types... anyway since it can by quite complex to write all CREATE TYPE statement for a real schema... here my suggestion:
1) activate a tracing with the following statement
ALTER SESSION SET EVENTS '31098 TRACE NAME CONTEXT FOREVER'
2) register the schema with GENTYPES=&gt;TRUE
3) in a trace file under UDUMP you find all the statements executed, therefore the CREATE TYPE as well
4) use these statement as basis for your scripts
