For a type A that extends type B as shown below,

        <xsd:complexType name="A">
                <xsd:complexContent>
                        <xsd:extension base="B"/>
                </xsd:complexContent>
        </xsd:complexType>

        <xsd:complexType name="B">
                <xsd:attribute name="attr" type="xsd:string"
use="required"/>
        </xsd:complexType>

JAXB validation of <A attr="x"/> fails with the following error:

DefaultValidationEventHandler: [ERROR]: unexpected attribute "attr"

Apprently, the attribute 'attr' defined in the base type 'B' is not honored
when validating type 'A'.
Is this a known issue?

Thanks
