Setter method for element with maxOccurs="unbounded"

[Kiran Kumar]

Hello All,

I was able to successfully generate classes from xsd. But, while using the generated classes for create a content tree and marshall it to xml, I faced problems. I am unable to find the setter method for the root element. Below is the xsd for which I faced problem. Please take a look at the maxOccurs="unbounded" line.

<xsd:element name="InstallService">
<xsd:complexType>
<xsd:sequence maxOccurs="unbounded">
<xsd:choice>
<xsd:element name="NewAccount" type="AccountRecordType">
.......
 

With the above xsd, XJC generated a class with InstallServiceType interface having getNewAccount() and inner interface NewAccount. But what it lacked is setNewAccount(NewAccount). Without this element, I cannot marshall a java object to xml.

But, when I removed the maxOccurs="unbounded", xjc created InstallServiceType with the setter method setNewAccount(..).

Is this the problem with JAXB or is it with my schema?
Any help or pointers is appreciated.

Thank you,
Kiran

I found the answer myself. The interface doesn't have a settter method, but it has a gettermethod as I said. The getter method returns a List. So, to set, we can use the getter method as below.

 
root.getNewAccount().add(tmp);
 

Where tmp is a new NewAccount() to be added.

Thanks anyway,
Kiran
