xsd - JAXB avoid JAXBElement<?>

I want to generate Java classes with JAXB from a XSD file.

The problem is, that I always get a few classes like this one (namespace removed):

public static class Action {

            @XmlElementRefs({
                @XmlElementRef(name = "ReportStateCanceled", namespace = "http://...", type = JAXBElement.class, required = false),
                @XmlElementRef(name = "ReportDate", namespace = "http://...", type = JAXBElement.class, required = false),
                @XmlElementRef(name = "ReportStatePreliminary", namespace = "http://...", type = JAXBElement.class, required = false),
                @XmlElementRef(name = "DocumentID", namespace = "http://...", type = JAXBElement.class, required = false),
                @XmlElementRef(name = "ReportStateNotValidated", namespace = "http://...", type = JAXBElement.class, required = false),
                @XmlElementRef(name = "CaseNo", namespace = "http://...", type = JAXBElement.class, required = false),
                @XmlElementRef(name = "PatientID", namespace = "http://...", type = JAXBElement.class, required = false),
                @XmlElementRef(name = "DocumentKey", namespace = "http://...", type = JAXBElement.class, required = false),
                @XmlElementRef(name = "ReportTime", namespace = "http://...", type = JAXBElement.class, required = false),
                @XmlElementRef(name = "ReportHeading", namespace = "http://...", type = JAXBElement.class, required = false),
                @XmlElementRef(name = "ReportStateComplete", namespace = "http://...", type = JAXBElement.class, required = false)
            })
            protected List<JAXBElement<?>> documentKeyOrDocumentIDOrPatientID;
            @XmlAttribute(name = "name")
            protected String name;
            @XmlAttribute(name = "Query")
            protected String query;

            /**

             *

             * For example, to add a new item, do as follows:

             * </pre>

            }

As you can see JAXB uses JAXBElement. Such classes are unuseable for me.


After some research I found out that JAXB has troubles with nillable="true" and minOccurs="0" together, but I do not use nillable anywhere. Tough I am sure, that the problem is related with the minOccurs and maxOccurs.

Even if I would know the exact problem it would be a problem because I get the XSD from an external person and I am not allowed to modify it.

The XSD snippet:

<xs:element name="Action" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded">
    <xs:complexType>
        <xs:choice minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded">
            <xs:element name="DocumentKey" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1"/>
            <xs:element name="DocumentID" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1"/>
            <xs:element name="PatientID" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1"/>
            <xs:element name="CaseNo" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1"/>
            <xs:element name="ReportHeading" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1"/>
            <xs:element name="ReportDate" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1">
                <xs:complexType>
                    <xs:simpleContent>
                        <xs:extension base="xs:string" >
                            <xs:attribute name="dateFormat" type="xs:string" />
                        </xs:extension>
                    </xs:simpleContent>
                </xs:complexType>
            </xs:element>
            <xs:element name="ReportTime" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1">
                <xs:complexType>
                    <xs:simpleContent>
                        <xs:extension base="xs:string" >
                            <xs:attribute name="timeFormat" type="xs:string" />
                        </xs:extension>
                    </xs:simpleContent>
                </xs:complexType>
            </xs:element>
            <xs:element name="ReportStateNotValidated" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1"/>
            <xs:element name="ReportStatePreliminary" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1"/>
            <xs:element name="ReportStateComplete" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1"/>
            <xs:element name="ReportStateCanceled" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1"/>
        </xs:choice>
        <xs:attribute name="name" type="xs:string" />
        <xs:attribute name="Query" type="xs:string" />
    </xs:complexType>
</xs:element>

So I searched for another solution. I always came to the conclusion that I could solve the problem if add a jaxb-binding.xml when I am generating the classes from the XSD.

I tried some bindings, but it never worked.

With this binding I get less JAXBElements, but I get interfaces instead of classes.

    <xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
               xmlns:jaxb="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/jaxb"
               xmlns:xjc="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/jaxb/xjc"
               jaxb:extensionBindingPrefixes="xjc"
               jaxb:version="2.0">

        <xs:annotation>
            <xs:appinfo>
                <jaxb:globalBindings generateValueClass="false" generateElementProperty="false" >
                    <xjc:simple />
                </jaxb:globalBindings>
            </xs:appinfo>
        </xs:annotation>
    </xs:schema>

And now I am asking if anyone knows a solution? The best solution would be if someone provides me a working jaxb-binding.xml.

I am

I wrote the Simpify plugin exactly for this problem.

<xs:schema ...
    xmlns:simplify="http://jaxb2-commons.dev.java.net/basic/simplify"
    jaxb:extensionBindingPrefixes="... simplify">

<xs:complexType name="typeWithReferencesProperty">
    <xs:choice maxOccurs="unbounded">
        <xs:element name="a" type="someType">
            <xs:annotation>
                <xs:appinfo>
                    <simplify:as-element-property/>
                </xs:appinfo>
            </xs:annotation>
        </xs:element>
        <xs:element name="b" type="someType"/>
    </xs:choice> 
</xs:complexType>

will give you

@XmlElement(name = "a")
protected List<SomeType> a;
@XmlElement(name = "b")
protected List<SomeType> b;

instead of

@XmlElementRefs({
    @XmlElementRef(name = "a", type = JAXBElement.class),
    @XmlElementRef(name = "b", type = JAXBElement.class)
})
protected List<JAXBElement<SomeType>> aOrB;
