[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XMLBEANS-220?page=comments#action_12431639 ] Adam Lewandowski commented on XMLBEANS-220: -------------------------------------------
Is anyone else experiencing this? It causes the generated XML to fail validation which seems like a serious issue. > XmlObject.xmlText(XmlOptions) outputs xsi:nil="true" where schema definition > is minOccurs="0" and default value for nillable="false" > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: XMLBEANS-220 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XMLBEANS-220 > Project: XMLBeans > Issue Type: Bug > Components: XmlObject > Affects Versions: Version 2 > Environment: Windows XP, JDK 1.4.2_05 > Reporter: James Webster > > We have defined a type in the schema as... > <xsd:complexType name="MyType"> > <xsd:element name="mandatoryElement" type="xsd:string"/> > <xsd:element name="optionalElement" minOccurs="0" type="xsd:string"/> > </xsd:complexType> > According to the XML Schema specification, false is the default value for the > optional 'nillable' attribute on xsd:element. So the 'optionalElement' > element is nillable='false'. > We instantiate an instance of the MyType class, set the mandatory element and > get the value of xmlText()... > MyType type = MyType.Factory.newInstance(); > type.setMandatoryElement("someValue"); > String xmlText = type.xmlText(); > The value of xmlText generated by XMLBeans v2.0 is... > <MyType> > <mandatoryElement>someValue</mandatoryElement> > <optionalElement xsi:nil="true"/> > </MyType> > BUT, we would expect (given that optionalElement is NOT nillable) to see the > following... > <MyType> > <mandatoryElement>someValue</mandatoryElement> > </MyType> > Our investigations into the XMLBeans API suggests that it is not possible > (via XmlOptions, etc) to suppress the xsi: attributes, so we believe this may > be a bug? We are at no point explicitly setting the optionalElement to null. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
