Hi Ramin
You can substitute even simple types - David Bau, one of the original
designers of XmlBeans, thought of this (it's discussed in 3 articles
called "The Design of XMLBeans" parts 1, 2 and 3 - there are links to
these articles at http://xmlbeans.apache.org/resources/index.html).
To substitute this you need to get hold of what David calls the "formal"
type - in this case an instance of XmlString instead of just String.
There are special methods on the generated beans that allow you to get
(and set) through formal types. Instead of being getXXX()/setXXX they
are xgetXXX() and xsetXXX(). So in your case you want code that looks
something like this:
XmlString initialBaseState = tt.xgetBaseState();
QName troubleStateQName =
new QName("your_target_namespace", "troubleState");
TroubleState troubleState =
(TroubleState)initialBaseState.substitute(troubleStateQName,
TroubleState.type);
troubleState.set(TroubleState.UNKNOWNTROUBLESTATE);
I tried that out on a simple schema based on your fragment and that all
works for me - so let me know if you have problems.
Cheers,
Lawrence
