This tool should be able to generate very logical intuitive type names in most cases. Generated code is similar to code samples in my earlier blog.

Usage:
genscode.exe <schemaFile> <optional section name>

This tool dumps the code on the console. Redirect to save in a file.
genscode.exe %windir%\system32\inetsrv\config\schema\IIS_Schema.xml system.webServer/httpCompression > HttpCompression.cs

Using these classes directly requires you to remember attribute/collection/element names which needs to be passed to GetAttribute(), GetCollection(), GetChildElement(). MWA allows you to define your Section/Collection/Element types which can then be passed to GetSection, GetCollection, GetChildElement to get an instance of strongly typed class which makes dealing with sections very easy.]]> http://www.ksingla.net/2006/12/mwa_and_intellisense_for_configuration_sections/feed/ 0
