JAXB @XmlAttribute @XmlValue real example

java, jaxb, xml-binding

Solution

Thank you Blaise Doughan. But after dug more over 10 topics I decide I HAD TO to start with opposite way.

I created new test which MARSHALLING my data (objects). Actually, I used TDD (test Driven Development) way I think. So, I filled up my Objects with test data and applied Marshalling (created XML from DATA) and saw that I got. Data Was Incorrect. I looked to other topic also (thanx this one Java/JAXB: Unmarshall Xml to specific subclass based on an attribute ) and correct my data Structure

remember Id like to get

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<response>
    <code>1000</code>
    <message>Big message</message>
    <resData>
        <data name="svDate">2013.03.14</data>
    </resData>
</response>

Now my data are :

package net.regmaster.onlinenic.model.response.resdata;

import javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlAccessType;
import javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlAccessorType;
import javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlAttribute;
import javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlElement;
import javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlRootElement;
import javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlValue;

import org.eclipse.persistence.oxm.annotations.XmlCustomizer;

/**
 * @author annik
 *
 */
@XmlAccessorType(XmlAccessType.FIELD)
@XmlRootElement(name="data")
//@XmlCustomizer(ResDataCustomiser.class)
public class XmlData
{
    @XmlAttribute(name="name")
    private String name;

    @XmlValue
    private String value;

    /** Getter.
     * @return the name
     */
    public String getName() {
        return name;
    }

    /** Setter.
     * @param name the name to set
     */
    public void setName(String name) {
        this.name = name;
    }

    /** Getter.
     * @return the value
     */
    public String getValue() {
        return value;
    }

    /** Setter.
     * @param value the value to set
     */
    public void setValue(String value) {
        this.value = value;
    }
}

and :

package net.regmaster.onlinenic.model.response.resdata;

import java.util.List;

import javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlRootElement;

/**
 * @author annik
 * 
 */
@XmlRootElement
public class ResData
{
    private List<XmlData> data;

    /**
     * Getter.
     * 
     * @return the data
     */
    public List<XmlData> getData() {
        return data;
    }

    /**
     * Setter.
     * 
     * @param data
     *            the data to set
     */
    public void setData(List<XmlData> data) {
        this.data = data;
    }
}

    }
}

and vu-alja : I got that !

And as you can see below it works to another way : https://i.stack.imgur.com/35nzb.png

Problem

I'm new to JAXB and have troubles with conversion from XML to a Java class instance. I have the following XML: ``` <?xml version="1.0"?> <response> <category>client</category> <action>Greeting</action> <code>1000</code> <msg>Your Connection with API Server is Successful</msg> <resData> <data name="svDate">2009-02-16 06:22:21</data> </resData> </response> ``` and I develop the following Java code: ``` /** * Copyright 2013. ABN Software. All Rights reserved.<br> * Author ......

Also I do not understand in case I will have many different ``` <data ...>..</data> ``` What could I do easy and simply? I mean this case: ``` <resData> <data name="crDate">2004-12-17</data> <data name="exDate">2009-01-02</data> <data name="password">7fe11fd9d97ee40bdf57e561427c0a6</data> <data name="dns">dns1.onlinenic.net</data> <data name="dns">dns2.onlinenic.net</data> <data name="r_name">123456</data> <data name="r_org">123456</data> <data name="r_country">BJ</data> <data name="r_province">mokcup</data> <data name="r_city">123456</data> <data name="r_street">123456</data> <data name="r_postalcode">123456</data> <data name="r_voice">+86.5925391800</data> <data name="r_fax">+86.5925391800</data> <data name="r_email">asdfasdf@sadf.com</data> .... ```
