A xml schema created by "Schemagen" of Ant task can customize any more?


Now, I have two Java classes like this.

public class HogeDomain {

    private User userDomain;

    public HogeDomain() {
    }

         and getter/setter..  
}

public class User {

    public User() {
    }

    private String id;
    private String password;
    private Date userDate;

    and getter/setter..
}

And then, I created a xml schema above for using "Schemagen" of an Ant task automatically.

It's this.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<xs:schema version="1.0" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">

  <xs:complexType name="hogeDomain">
    <xs:sequence>
     <xs:element name="userDomain" type="user" minOccurs="0"/>
    </xs:sequence>
  </xs:complexType>

  <xs:complexType name="user">
    <xs:sequence>
      <xs:element name="id" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0"/>
      <xs:element name="password" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0"/>
      <xs:element name="userDate" type="xs:dateTime" minOccurs="0"/>
    </xs:sequence>
  </xs:complexType>

</xs:schema>

But I really want to create a xml schema like this to using JAXB marshalling or unmarshalling.

  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
  <xs:schema version="1.0" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">

      <xs:element name="hogeDomain">
      <xs:complexType>
         <xs:sequence>
           <xs:element ref="userDomain" minOccurs="0"/>
         </xs:sequence>
      </xs:complexType>
      </xs:element>

      <xs:element name="userDomain">
         <xs:complexType>
           <xs:sequence>
              <xs:element name="id" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0"/>
              <xs:element name="password" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0"/>
              <xs:element name="userDate" type="xs:dateTime" minOccurs="0"/>
           </xs:sequence>
         </xs:complexType>
      </xs:element>
 </xs:schema>

How to create this xml schema for using a "Schemagen" Ant task ? I don't want to write a xml schema for hand-made.

And is there any solutions when if it can't ?


Solution

  • You can do the following:

    1. You will need to add @XmlRootElement to each of you classes to get to cause global elements to be generated.
    2. You will need to add @XmlType(name="") to force the complex type definitions to be anonymous.
    3. You will need to use @XmlElementRef on property.

    As demonstrated by:

    import javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlElementRef;
    import javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlRootElement;
    import javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlType;
    
    @XmlRootElement
    @XmlType(name="")
    public class HogeDomain {
    
        private User userDomain;
    
        @XmlElementRef
        public User getUserDomain() {
            return userDomain;
        }
    
        public void setUserDomain(User userDomain) {
            this.userDomain = userDomain;
        }
    
    }
    

    and

    import javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlRootElement;
    import javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlType;
    
    @XmlRootElement
    @XmlType(name="")
    public class User {
    
    }
    

    To generate the following schema:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
    <xs:schema version="1.0" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
    
      <xs:element name="hogeDomain">
        <xs:complexType>
          <xs:sequence>
            <xs:element ref="user"/>
          </xs:sequence>
        </xs:complexType>
      </xs:element>
    
      <xs:element name="user">
        <xs:complexType>
          <xs:sequence/>
        </xs:complexType>
      </xs:element>
    </xs:schema>
    

    With the following code:

    import java.io.IOException;
    import javax.xml.bind.JAXBContext;
    import javax.xml.bind.SchemaOutputResolver;
    import javax.xml.transform.Result;
    import javax.xml.transform.stream.StreamResult;
    
    public class Demo {
    
        public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
            JAXBContext jc = JAXBContext.newInstance(HogeDomain.class);
            jc.generateSchema(new MySOR());
    
        }
    
        private static class MySOR extends SchemaOutputResolver {
    
            @Override
            public Result createOutput(String namespaceUri, String suggestedFileName) throws IOException {
                StreamResult result = new StreamResult(System.out);
                result.setSystemId(suggestedFileName);
                return result;
            }
    
        }
    
    }
