unable to generate correct xml using jaxb

[ramesh kancherla]

Hi team,
I am using jaxB and jax-ws in my application.

I am calling service with request xml prepared by jaxb code.
but request xml is not generating correctly.

i have given xml schema as elementFormDefault="qualified" value.
so parent and all child elements needs to display xmlns.

like :name space "sch" is in parent and child elements

<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:sch="viewpsna/schemas">
   <soapenv:Header/>
   <soapenv:Body>
      <sch:ViewPSElementRequest>
         <!--You may enter the following 8 items in any order-->
         <sch:nPSElementType>?</sch:nPSElementType>
         <sch:nGISEleType>?</sch:nGISEleType>
         <sch:sGISRefID>?</sch:sGISRefID>
         <sch:sVersionID>?</sch:sVersionID>
         <sch:UserID>?</sch:UserID>
         <sch:SSOID>?</sch:SSOID>
         <sch:RoleID>?</sch:RoleID>
         <sch:SchemaName>?</sch:SchemaName>
      </sch:ViewPSElementRequest>
   </soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>

using jaxb request xml is generating with out name space "sch" in child elements

<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:sch="viewpsna/schemas">
   <soapenv:Header/>
   <soapenv:Body>
      <sch:ViewPSElementRequest>
         <!--You may enter the following 8 items in any order-->
         <nPSElementType>?</nPSElementType>
         <nGISEleType>?</nGISEleType>
         <sGISRefID>?</sGISRefID>
         <sVersionID>?</sVersionID>
         <UserID>?</UserID>
         <SSOID>?</SSOID>
         <RoleID>?</RoleID>
         <SchemaName>?</SchemaName>
      </sch:ViewPSElementRequest>
   </soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>

jaxb code is :

JAXBContext jc = JAXBContext.newInstance("viewpsna.schemas");
ObjectFactory of = new ObjectFactory();
ViewPSElementRequest requestValue = of.createViewPSElementRequest();
JAXBElement<ViewPSElementRequest> request = of.createViewPSElementRequest(requestValue);
Marshaller m1 = jc.createMarshaller();
m1.marshal(request, System.out);

can any one please suggest me how can i generate request xml with parent and child having namespace using jaxb

Can you post the schema also.

Although you may want to explore the concept of package-info.java related to JAXB.

Something like.

@XmlSchema(
    namespace = "yourXMLschema",
    elementFormDefault=XmlNsForm.QUALIFIED)
package samples; //package to which schema should map.

import javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlNsForm;
import javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlSchema;

Ramesh,

Very interesting discussion about it at XSD: What is elementFormDefault="qualified" for?.

Joe Kesselman said there -

"Qualified", in XML terms, means "Associated with a namespace, either by
the use of a declared prefix or via a default namespace declaration".

Ramesh,

It would be an interesting exercise to post the schema and the instance into a validator and see what it says.
