Hi Ian Not sure whether you meant "how do I get to the annotations on the local elements within the definition of the complex type Dia in the schema below?" or "if I had an annotation directly on the Dia <complexType> definition itself how would I get to that?". So I've attached some code (based on your HtmlBuilder class) that will help you do either.
But I agree that the approach to annotations could be clearer so I've raised a JIRA issue to suggest making improvements - http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XMLBEANS-195. Cheers, Lawrence // this corresponds to the <complexType> element named Dia SchemaAnnotation diaAnn = Dia.type.getAnnotation(); XmlObject[] diaAppInfo = diaAnn.getApplicationInformation(); for (int i = 0; i < diaAppInfo.length; i++) { GuiDocument gui = null; try { gui = GuiDocument.Factory.parse(diaAppInfo[i].toString()); } catch (XmlException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } System.out.println("Dia complex type annotation getGuiDisplayName() = " + gui.getGui().getDisplayName()); System.out.println("Dia complex type annotation getFieldName() = " + gui.getGui().getFieldName()); } // this corresponds to the <sequence> element with the Dia <complexType> SchemaParticle contentModel = Dia.type.getContentModel(); // getParticleChildren() gives you the local elements: lanPrefixList and wanPrefixList SchemaParticle[] spArray = contentModel.getParticleChildren(); for (int i=0; i<spArray.length; i++) { // from there you can get their annotations as before SchemaAnnotation ann2 = ((SchemaLocalElement)spArray[i]).getAnnotation(); XmlObject[] appInfo2 = ann2.getApplicationInformation(); for (int j = 0; j < appInfo2.length; j++) { GuiDocument gui = null; try { gui = GuiDocument.Factory.parse(appInfo2[j].toString()); } catch (XmlException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } System.out.println("[diaObject] gui.getGui().getGuiDisplayName() = " + gui.getGui().getDisplayName()); System.out.println("[diaObject] gui.getGui().getFieldName() = " + gui.getGui().getFieldName()); } } > -----Original Message----- > From: Butt, Ian [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Monday, August 29, 2005 12:10 PM > To: [email protected]; [email protected] > Subject: RE: Trying to use XMLBeans 2.0 and appinfo > > Thanks Lawrence that certainly got me headed in the right direction.
