Hi Artem Hmmm. I think I there are sufficient
reasons to do it the way we do it. Consider if we were to do it such that the
attribute got “automatically added”. Then for people who pass in an
instance doc with a defaulted attribute (i.e. it is missing but has a default
value) if they output their document it now looks different from what went in. The
meaning is the same but the actual text is different. If they wanted to go back
to the original state they’d somehow have to distinguish which elements
were originally missing and explicitly unset them. Identifying which attributes
were originally missing as opposed to attributes which were not missing but
happened to have their default values would be difficult. And round-tripping in
this fashion can be important to some people. Another way of looking at it is that the
purpose of having a default attribute in the schema is so that instance
documents with those attributes missing would be interpreted correctly – this
should be true of whatever is interpreting the instance doc – so it is correct
for XmlBeans to produce documents that look that way – especially since
you can then specifically override if you want to. Anyway – that’s my 2c FWIW. Cheers, From:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi Lawrence, I see. That’s a bit of a let
down. For me the whole purpose of having a default value in the schema
was so that I didn’t have to explicitly set it via the setMethod()
call. But if that is not possible I’ll have to work around it.
Thanks any way. Regards, Artem From: Lawrence Jones
[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi Artem Ah – so it’s not that the
attribute has a empty value (i.e. <def:Section … method=””
>) - rather that the attribute is missing altogether. In that case I think what
you are seeing is the expected behavior. If you fail to set an attribute but
that attribute has a default value then for infoset validation purposes that
attribute is present (see http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-1/#sic-attrDefault)
and hence if you call getMethod() you will get back the default value even
though the attribute is not present. If you explicitly want it to be present
you can simply call setMethod() – after that the attribute (and its
value) will show up in the output XML. If you simply want to check whether it
is actually present or not you can use the isSetMethod() method. Cheers, From:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Here’s a shortened version of the
code. I left out everything that didn’t have to do with the
attribute in question. ConsolePageDocument doc =
ConsolePageDocument.Factory.newInstance(); ConsolePage consolePage =
doc.addNewConsolePage(); Right right =
consolePage.addNewRight(); SectionType section =
right.addNewSection(); section.setName("S/MIME Provider
Settings"); section.setHelp("Settings to
enable the use of Secure Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions");
section.setStyle(SectionType.Style.FIELDSET); section.setForm("setSMIME"); HTTPMethod.Enum m = section.getMethod(); // getting back HTTPMethod.POST // serialize document ByteArrayOutputStream result = new ByteArrayOutputStream(); doc.save(result); Here is what the Section node looks like
when serialized… <def:Section
name="S/MIME Provider Settings" help="Settings to enable the use
of Secure Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions"
style="fieldset" form="setSMIME"> Thanks, Artem From: Lawrence Jones
[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi Artem Can you send the code you are using to
create your document please? Cheers, From:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi, There appears to be a problem in XMLBeans with handling of
default values for attributes. I have an attribute in my schema that has
a type of enumeration and also has a default value
<xs:attribute name="method" type="com:HTTPMethod" default="POST"/> <xs:simpleType name="HTTPMethod">
<xs:restriction base="xs:string">
<xs:enumeration value="GET"/>
<xs:enumeration value="POST"/>
</xs:restriction> </xs:simpleType> When I create my document using XMLBeans and serialize it
via save(OutputStream), I end up with the method attribute having an empty
value. However, if I make a call to getMethod(), I’m getting the
expected default value. What am I doing wrong?
