Hi everyone,
I don't mean to be annoying but I never got an answer to the question below
about attribute inheritance. I am using version 2.1.12. Has support for
overriding default values been added since? And a related question: If I
declared an attribute in a supertype and then override it (restrict it) with
a fixed value in a subtype, why doesn't the generated code reflect this.
If xjc does not support it, is there perhaps a plugin which does?
Thanks,
Anders
