Using JAXB binding customization you can specify the node with a particular name with XPath and customize its property name. The code would be similar to this ( not tested but you get the idea)
<jxb:bindings node=".//xs:element[@name='name']">
<jxb:property name="toName"/>
</jxb:bindings>
This is my sample xsd - customer.xsd
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsd:schema xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<xsd:element name="customer">
<xsd:complexType>
<xsd:sequence>
<xsd:element
name="phone-number"
type="xsd:string"
maxOccurs="unbounded"/>
</xsd:sequence>
</xsd:complexType>
</xsd:element>
</xsd:schema>
Running xjc on this schema creates following class
@XmlAccessorType(XmlAccessType.FIELD)
@XmlType(name = "", propOrder = {
"phoneNumber"
})
@XmlRootElement(name = "customer")
public class Customer {
@XmlElement(name = "phone-number", required = true)
protected List<String> phoneNumber;
public List<String> getPhoneNumber() {
if (phoneNumber == null) {
phoneNumber = new ArrayList<String>();
}
return this.phoneNumber;
}
Now I have create a custom binding
<jxb:bindings schemaLocation="customer.xsd">
<jxb:bindings node="//xs:element[@name='customer']/xs:complexType/xs:sequence/xs:element[@name='phone-number']">
<!--<jxb:property name="" collectionType="java.util.LinkedList"/>-->
<jxb:property name="number"/>
</jxb:bindings>
</jxb:bindings>
Here I have changed the name of the list property to "number"
When I run xjc with this binding, I get the following Customer class with list property correctly updated
@XmlAccessorType(XmlAccessType.FIELD)
@XmlType(name = "", propOrder = {
"number"
})
@XmlRootElement(name = "customer")
public class Customer {
@XmlElement(name = "phone-number", required = true)
protected List<String> number;
public List<String> getNumber() {
if (number == null) {
number = new ArrayList<String>();
}
return this.number;
}
With your schema you can try following to give your own property name
<jxb:bindings node="//xs:complexType/xs:sequence[xs:element[@name='baseUrl' or @name='beginAt' or @name='gotoPage']]">
<jxb:property name="yourpropertyname"/>
</jxb:bindings>
Running this on your schema gives
@XmlAccessorType(XmlAccessType.FIELD)
@XmlType(name = "webCheckType", propOrder = {
"number"
})
public class WebCheckType {
@XmlElementRefs({
@XmlElementRef(name = "beginAt", type = JAXBElement.class),
@XmlElementRef(name = "gotoPage", type = JAXBElement.class),
@XmlElementRef(name = "baseUrl", type = JAXBElement.class)
})
protected List<JAXBElement<Object>> number;
@XmlAttribute(required = true)
@XmlJavaTypeAdapter(CollapsedStringAdapter.class)
@XmlID
@XmlSchemaType(name = "ID")
protected String id;
@XmlAttribute(name = "extends")
@XmlIDREF
@XmlSchemaType(name = "IDREF")
protected Object _extends;
@XmlAttribute(required = true)
protected String displayName;
........................
.......................
public List<JAXBElement<Object>> getNumber() {
if (number == null) {
number = new ArrayList<JAXBElement<Object>>();
}
return this.number;
}
Of course in my case its JAXBElement because in my xsd I have not given the type for those elements but it should be fine in your case.
