34 /** |
|
35 * Maps a factory method to a XML element. |
|
36 * |
|
37 * <p> <b>Usage</b> </p> |
|
38 * |
|
39 * The annotation creates a mapping between an XML schema element |
|
40 * declaration and a <i> element factory method </i> that returns a |
|
41 * JAXBElement instance representing the element |
|
42 * declaration. Typically, the element factory method is generated |
|
43 * (and annotated) from a schema into the ObjectFactory class in a |
|
44 * Java package that represents the binding of the element |
|
45 * declaration's target namespace. Thus, while the annotation syntax |
|
46 * allows @XmlElementDecl to be used on any method, semantically |
|
47 * its use is restricted to annotation of element factory method. |
|
48 * |
|
49 * The usage is subject to the following constraints: |
|
50 * |
|
51 * <ul> |
|
52 * <li> The class containing the element factory method annotated |
|
53 * with @XmlElementDecl must be marked with {@link |
|
54 * XmlRegistry}. </li> |
|
55 * <li> The element factory method must take one parameter |
|
56 * assignable to {@link Object}.</li> |
|
57 * </ul> |
|
58 * |
|
59 * <p><b>Example 1: </b>Annotation on a factory method |
|
60 * <pre> |
|
61 * // Example: code fragment |
|
62 * @XmlRegistry |
|
63 * class ObjectFactory { |
|
64 * @XmlElementDecl(name="foo") |
|
65 * JAXBElement<String> createFoo(String s) { ... } |
|
66 * } |
|
67 * </pre> |
|
68 * <pre> |
|
69 * <!-- XML input --> |
|
70 * <foo>string</foo> |
|
71 * |
|
72 * // Example: code fragment corresponding to XML input |
|
73 * JAXBElement<String> o = |
|
74 * (JAXBElement<String>)unmarshaller.unmarshal(aboveDocument); |
|
75 * // print JAXBElement instance to show values |
|
76 * System.out.println(o.getName()); // prints "{}foo" |
|
77 * System.out.println(o.getValue()); // prints "string" |
|
78 * System.out.println(o.getValue().getClass()); // prints "java.lang.String" |
|
79 * |
|
80 * <!-- Example: XML schema definition --> |
|
81 * <xs:element name="foo" type="xs:string"/> |
|
82 * </pre> |
|
83 * |
|
84 * <p><b>Example 2: </b> Element declaration with non local scope |
|
85 * <p> |
|
86 * The following example illustrates the use of scope annotation |
|
87 * parameter in binding of element declaration in schema derived |
|
88 * code. |
|
89 * <p> |
|
90 * The following example may be replaced in a future revision of |
|
91 * this javadoc. |
|
92 * |
|
93 * <pre> |
|
94 * <!-- Example: XML schema definition --> |
|
95 * <xs:schema> |
|
96 * <xs:complexType name="pea"> |
|
97 * <xs:choice maxOccurs="unbounded"> |
|
98 * <xs:element name="foo" type="xs:string"/> |
|
99 * <xs:element name="bar" type="xs:string"/> |
|
100 * </xs:choice> |
|
101 * </xs:complexType> |
|
102 * <xs:element name="foo" type="xs:int"/> |
|
103 * </xs:schema> |
|
104 * </pre> |
|
105 * <pre> |
|
106 * // Example: expected default binding |
|
107 * class Pea { |
|
108 * @XmlElementRefs({ |
|
109 * @XmlElementRef(name="foo",type=JAXBElement.class) |
|
110 * @XmlElementRef(name="bar",type=JAXBElement.class) |
|
111 * }) |
|
112 * List<JAXBElement<String>> fooOrBar; |
|
113 * } |
|
114 * |
|
115 * @XmlRegistry |
|
116 * class ObjectFactory { |
|
117 * @XmlElementDecl(scope=Pea.class,name="foo") |
|
118 * JAXBElement<String> createPeaFoo(String s); |
|
119 * |
|
120 * @XmlElementDecl(scope=Pea.class,name="bar") |
|
121 * JAXBElement<String> createPeaBar(String s); |
|
122 * |
|
123 * @XmlElementDecl(name="foo") |
|
124 * JAXBElement<Integer> createFoo(Integer i); |
|
125 * } |
|
126 * |
|
127 * </pre> |
|
128 * Without scope createFoo and createPeaFoo would become ambiguous |
|
129 * since both of them map to a XML schema element with the same local |
|
130 * name "foo". |
