Kohsuke,
The AdvertiseSS is not part of that schema. I do/would like to
modify some values in that new document but not sure how to determine
what type of object to create as the root element of AdvertiseSS could
be 1 of 8 values. I have the schema'(s) for that project thought. But at
the moment I woudl do the folowing:
ReleaseRequest.Item rrI = (ReleaseRequest.Item) rr.getItem();
so I have the vailue in rrI. Now I have 2 issues. Issue one is that is
I do the folowing on that:
m.marshal( new JAXBElement(new QName("",""), ReleaseRequest.Item.class,
rrI), result);
I don't get a well formed message. It is as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?><
xmlns:ns2="urn:us:gov:dod:army:cerdec:jbfsa:csds:r1"><ns3:advertiseSS
advertisementID="
.
.
.
</ns3:advertiseSS></>
Need to get ride of the ending "</>" and "<
xmlns:ns2="urn:us:gov:dod:army:cerdec:jbfsa:csds:r1">"
And is I want to use JAXB how do I unmarshal a xml document when I don't
know the root element/what msg it is? The example below is how I've
seen it done but I know I was going to have a ReleaseRequest msg, how do
you do it when you don't know the msg type ahead of time?
jc = JAXBContext.newInstance("csds.message");
Unmarshaller u = jc.createUnmarshaller();
_rr = (ReleaseRequest) u.unmarshal(new
ByteArrayInputStream(msgAsString.
getBytes()));
Thanks,
Frank
