Hi,

I'm new to JAXB and to XML schemas... I use the Beta 0.75 with sun's 1.3.1_03
jdk on w2k.

I have the following schema part:

...
      <xs:element name="SOME_LEAF" type="xs:double" nillable="1"/>
...


Within Java, I can add an empty SOME_LEAF to my JAXB- Object.

1.) It's possible to marshall the (not validated) JAXB- Object

2.) When validate the JAXB-Object with this empty SOME_LEAF i get:
      DefaultValidationEventHandler: [ERROR]: null

3.) I can live without validation, but when try to unmarshall the file generated
by 1.) I get:
      DefaultValidationEventHandler: [ERROR]: Unexpected text ""
      java.lang.NullPointerException
      at
de.lsgermany.Products.SPweb.xml.impl.SOMELEAFImpl$Unmarshaller.text(SOMELEAFImpl.java:206)


      ...

It's impossible to unmarshall the marshalled xml again.

Is there something I'm doing wrong. Is this a bug in the Validator?

Thanks a lot for your help,
Michael
