I haven't looked at your Schema, but for optional elements/attributes, XMLBeans
will generate unsetXXX() methods, which will remove the element/attribute
rather than setting it to null.

Subject: How to delete a Child element in an XMLBeans application?
How to delete a child element in Java beans style of handling XML
document in an XMLBeans based Java application? I can't find way to deleting a
child element using Java types created by XMLBeans based on the XML Schema. I
know of doing it using XMLCursor interface.
I have attached XML Schema SchemaDel.xsd, its input data InputDel.xml,
and XMLBeans java application Delete_XmlBeans.java. This Java application logic
wants to remove the "childElement1". However, output shows that childeElement1
is set to nil with xsi:nil="true". I was hoping for actual output to have
"childElement1" disappeared completely. How can I do that?
Thanks in advance.
Ritesh
