Serializing non-containment reference

[Santhosh Adiga]

Hi,

  I am trying to serialize and deserialize a SDO containing a
non-containment reference. Here is the xsd corresponding to the SDO.

<xsd:import namespace="commonj.sdo/xml"
        schemaLocation="sdoXML.xsd">
    </xsd:import>
    <xsd:complexType mixed="true" name="InvolvedPartyImpl">
        <xsd:sequence>
            <xsd:element minOccurs="0" name="involvedPartySurrogate"
                type="domain:SurrogateDomain" />
            <xsd:element minOccurs="0" name="organizationOrPerson"
                type="domain:OrganizationOrPersonDomain" />
            <xsd:element minOccurs="0" name="paymentPlan"
                type="bons0:PaymentPlan" maxOccurs="1">
            </xsd:element>
            <xsd:element minOccurs="0" name="financialTransactions"
                type="bons0:FinancialTransactions">
            </xsd:element>
            <xsd:element minOccurs="0" name="refInvolvedParty"
                type="bons0:InvolvedPartyImpl" maxOccurs="1">
            </xsd:element>
        </xsd:sequence>
    </xsd:complexType>
    <xsd:complexType name="PaymentPlan">
        <xsd:sequence>
            <xsd:element minOccurs="0" name="PaymentPlanName"
                type="xsd:string">
            </xsd:element>
            <xsd:element minOccurs="0" name="PaymentPlanID"
                type="xsd:int">
            </xsd:element>
            <xsd:element minOccurs="0" name="refInvolvedParty"
                type="xsd:anyURI" sdoXML:propertyType="InvolvedPartyImpl">
            </xsd:element>
        </xsd:sequence>
    </xsd:complexType>
    <xsd:complexType name="FinancialTransaction">
        <xsd:sequence>
            <xsd:element minOccurs="0" name="financialTransaction"
                type="xsd:double">
            </xsd:element>
            <xsd:element minOccurs="0" name="financialTransactionID"
                type="xsd:long">
            </xsd:element>
            <xsd:element minOccurs="0" name="refInvolvedParty"
                type="xsd:anyURI" sdoXML:propertyType="InvolvedPartyImpl"
                maxOccurs="1">
            </xsd:element>
        </xsd:sequence>
    </xsd:complexType>
    <xsd:complexType name="FinancialTransactions">
        <xsd:sequence>
            <xsd:element minOccurs="0" name="financialTransaction"
                type="bons0:FinancialTransaction" maxOccurs="unbounded">
            </xsd:element>
        </xsd:sequence>
    </xsd:complexType>





As you can see the payment plan contains a reference to an involved party.
When the referenced involved party is present in the same data graph
as the payment plan, here is the serialized xml i am getting.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<p:InvolvedPartyImpl xsi:type="p:InvolvedPartyImpl"
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
    xmlns:p="http://www.abc.com/edm/entities";>
    <financialTransactions>
        <financialTransaction>
            <financialTransactionID>13</financialTransactionID>
        </financialTransaction>
        <financialTransaction>
            <financialTransactionID>12</financialTransactionID>
        </financialTransaction>
    </financialTransactions>
    <involvedPartySurrogate>23</involvedPartySurrogate>
    <paymentPlan>
        <PaymentPlanID>12</PaymentPlanID>
        *<refInvolvedParty>
            BusinessObject: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
            (:mixed=[entities:involvedPartySurrogate=24],
            involvedPartySurrogate=24)
        </refInvolvedParty>*
    </paymentPlan>
    <refInvolvedParty>
        <involvedPartySurrogate>24</involvedPartySurrogate>
    </refInvolvedParty>
</p:InvolvedPartyImpl>


And I am having problems deserializing the reference involved party
obtained.
Could you let me know if there is any special trick to be applied while
serializing or deserializing a
non-containment reference and is it specific to any implementation?


Thanks
