RE: Serializer for Character

[Ted Neward]

There is no convenient mapping for Unicode characters in Schema; the closest we could come to is either an xsd:string, or an xsd:sequence minOccurs="2" maxOccurs="2" of xsd:byte (which is trey ugly).

 

Anybody know if Schema v1.1 provides this?

There is no char type in xml, so the mapping from a Java char (or java.lang.Character) doesn't exist. Feel free to provide one, though. What type do you think it should map to?

I received the following error:

java.io.IOException: No serializer found for class java.lang.Character in
registry org.apache.axis.encoding.TypeMappingImpl@cb42cf

Are char type fields not supported?

Should I take a shot at implementing this and contributing the code? Anyone
have some direction on where the code should go? I'll probably just first
attack it writing a custom Serializer/Deserializer since that's what I've
already been looking at. I imagine that most primitives are handled in one
place, though, aren't they?
