In order to be compliant to the schema, I've got to eliminate an empty element tag (e.g. <element/>).
Using the customer example from the tutorial, if I use the following binding: <mapping name="customer" class="Customer"> <structure name="person" usage="optional"> <value name="cust-num" field="customerNumber" usage="optional"/> <value name="first-name" field="firstName" usage="optional"/> <value name="last-name" field="lastName" usage="optional"/> </structure> <structure field="address"> <value name="street" field="street1"/> <value name="city" field="city"/> <value name="state" field="state"/> <value name="zip" field="zip"/> </structure> <value name="phone" field="phone"/> </mapping> (Note there is no Person class, it's all on Customer). The following XML is produced when customerNumber, firstName and lastName are null: <customer> <person/> <street>12345 Happy Lane</street> <city>Plunk</city> <state>WA</state> <zip>98059</zip> <phone>888.555.1234</phone> </customer> How do I get rid of the empty <person/> element? The real problem is with a B2B schema that I can't change. Emitting the empty element causes the xml to fail schema validation. Any tips?
