I just added a possibly relevant recipe to the Aegis page on the online
doc which explains how to fix this in Java or in a .aegis.xml file.

Subject: Re: [xfire-user] WSDL Contains 'minOccurs="0"' For Required
Fields

 

With JAXB2 (and maybe with the other bindings, too) - you can specify
annotations, for XmlElement, you can provide 'nillable=true/false' and
with XmlAttribute, you can specify 'required=true/false'.

I'm guessing this is the path you'll need to go down, either customizing
your POJOs with annotations specific to the binding you're using (jaxb2,
xmlbeans, aegis, etc.) or customizing the xsd generated by XFire and
providing a custom xsd instead of letting XFire generate it from that
point forward. 

There may be other routes/mechanisms, but that's all I've found.

Cheers,
Brice

I have an XFire service being consumed by a .net application which is 
giving me grief. It seems to boil down to the minOccurs="0" attribute
being added to required elements of objects passed as parameters to my
service methods.

Here's a relevant section of the WSDL which shows the undesired 
minOccurs="0" attribute (type names have changed for IP reasons)..

--BEGIN WSDL SNIPPET--
<xsd:complexType name="DataDto">
  <xsd:sequence>
    <xsd:element minOccurs="0" name="id" type="xsd:long" /> 
    <xsd:element minOccurs="0" name="date" type="xsd:dateTime" />
    <xsd:element minOccurs="0" name="someString" nillable="true"
type="xsd:string" /> 
    <xsd:element minOccurs="0" name="anotherString" nillable="true"
type="ns1:AnotherType" />
  </xsd:sequence>
</xsd:complexType>
--END--

The non-trivial model objects being accepted by the service, as well as 
all fields of those objects, need to be set, so I'm pretty sure I don't
want 'minOccurs="0"' to be valid. When the .net guy generates his
classes, he ends up with "setIdSpecified" as well as "setId", for 
example, since id is a primitive type and there isn't another way to
differentiate between 0 and null. (I don't think the .net generator
would do this if minOccurs was gone.) Is there an annotation I need to 
add to fields of my DTOs which marks them as "required"? Help greatly
appreciated! Thanks,

Preston
