I have looked at the spec and when I attempted to do this I got
an unexpected attribute "parseMethod" error. Furthermore, I
can't find the javax.xml.bind.DatatypeConverter classes referred
to in the spec - are these not implemented yet, or am I doing
something silly?
However, I did succeed in creating an object with a constructor
and a toString() method, and this successfully compiled.
Alas, the framework appears to collapse the whitespace before
calling my class to do its parsing: i.e. the schema below
<xsd:annotation>
<xsd:appinfo>
<jxb:globalBindings>
<jxb:javaType name="com.aspective.common.jaxb.TrimmedString"
xmlType="xsd:string">
</jxb:javaType>
</jxb:globalBindings>
</xsd:appinfo>
</xsd:annotation>
produces unmarshalling code that looks like:
_Field = new com.aspective.common.jaxb.TrimmedString(
com.sun.xml.bind.WhiteSpaceProcessor.collapse(value));
Is this correct? Hopefully not as it rather defeats my purpose!
Even without this pre-processing of "value" I would prefer to
implement static methods rather than have a new custom object
created everytime a value is marshalled/unmarshalled.
Are there any samples available that do data-type conversion?
Thanks for your help
