Also, There are a couple of problems when I use the generated code to parse an example XML file...
First thing is unrelated to the type stuff...when generateDS runs it selects the wrong element type as the root...so when it goes to parse the xml it is trying to use the wrong element type...this is easy to remedy however, I just changed it to use the right class's factory() method, though it will cause the same problem whenever I regenerate it Second, after I do that it will parse and present the xml back correctly...except that it is missing the type specific elements. So in the example I have below, the Policy will have a name and description and then the AppControlPolicy type will have some Application elements or something. Since it is parsed as just the base policy type it will only spew out the name and description and will ignore the application elements. Is there any way to have it check the xsi:type and parse it using the correct class?
