Hi Stefan, You can use XercesJ to parse the schema then you can get the element declaration for your root element, get its type and create the instance as you explore it (we do this on new XML based on a schema in oXygen). With XSLT you can take a look at the XS3P [1] schema documentation stylesheet, it generates a schema instance representation that I think can be developed further to generate a full instance document.
