Enables mapping a class to a XML Schema complex type with a
simpleContent or a XML Schema simple type.
Usage:
The @XmlValue annotation can be used with the following program
elements:
- a JavaBean property.
- non static, non transient field.
See "Package Specification" in javax.xml.bind.package javadoc for
additional common information.
The usage is subject to the following usage constraints:
- At most one field or property can be annotated with the
@XmlValue annotation.
- @XmlValue can be used with the following
annotations:
XmlList . However this is redundant since
XmlList maps a type to a simple schema type that derives by
list just as
XmlValue would.
- If the type of the field or property is a collection type,
then the collection item type must map to a simple schema
type.
- If the type of the field or property is not a collection
type, then the type must map to a XML Schema simple type.
If the annotated JavaBean property is the sole class member being
mapped to XML Schema construct, then the class is mapped to a
simple type.
If there are additional JavaBean properties (other than the
JavaBean property annotated with @XmlValue annotation)
that are mapped to XML attributes, then the class is mapped to a
complex type with simpleContent.
Example 1: Map a class to XML Schema simpleType
// Example 1: Code fragment
public class USPrice {
@XmlValue
public java.math.BigDecimal price;
}
<!-- Example 1: XML Schema fragment -->
<xs:simpleType name="USPrice">
<xs:restriction base="xs:decimal"/>
</xs:simpleType>
Example 2: Map a class to XML Schema complexType with
with simpleContent.
// Example 2: Code fragment
public class InternationalPrice {
@XmlValue
public java.math.BigDecimal price;
@XmlAttribute
public String currency;
}
<!-- Example 2: XML Schema fragment -->
<xs:complexType name="InternationalPrice">
<xs:simpleContent>
<xs:extension base="xs:decimal">
<xs:attribute name="currency" type="xs:string"/>
</xs:extension>
</xs:simpleContent>
</xs:complexType>
