> All the attributes are serialized with default values even if they are not 
> explicitly set.
> This is a problem because the default value of an attribute is a contract 
> between the client and the web service provider and the framework should not 
> override it.
> <xs:complexType name="Sample">
>   <xs:sequence />
>   <xs:attribute name="BooleanAttribute" type="xs:boolean" />
>   <xs:attribute name="IntAttribute" type="xs:int" use="required"/>
>   <xs:attribute name="StringAttribute" type="xs:string" use="optional"/>
> </xs:complexType>
> If I don't set any attribute the generated xml look like
> <Sample BooleanAttribute="false" IntAttribute="0"/>
> This is completely wrong because the default values for my optional 
> attributes can be different.
> It should be (please remember that - as per specification - all attributes 
> are optional by default)
> <Sample/>
> The workaround for xs:int attribute is to explicitly set it to 
> java.lang.Integer.MIN_VALUE because in serialization the code is
> if (localAge != java.lang.Integer.MIN_VALUE) {
>    writeAttribute("",
>     "IntAttribute",
>    
> org.apache.axis2.databinding.utils.ConverterUtil.convertToString(localIntAttribute),
>  xmlWriter);
> But for xs:boolean attribute there is no workaround because in serialization 
> the code is
> if (true) {
>    writeAttribute("",
>     "BooleanAttribute",
>    
> org.apache.axis2.databinding.utils.ConverterUtil.convertToString(localBooleanAttribute),
>  xmlWriter);
>                                       }
