Thanks, Justin. We might be able to modify ComplexSupportXSAnyTypeBinding to support this. But there is another problem (I hope Jody can help):
Jody, to create a GeoAPI object with this type requires us to have a ComplexType for it to pass GeoTools validation. What does the PropertyDescriptor corresponding to the <any/> XSD element for this ComplexType look like (ignore the attributeGroup for now)? PropertyDescriptor says getName "may be null in some instances", but PropertyDescriptorImpl forbids this. The XSD snippet (from O&M 1.0) is (like): <complexType name="AnyOrReferenceType"> <sequence minOccurs="0"> <any/> </sequence> <attributeGroup ref="gml:AssociationAttributeGroup"/> </complexType> Kind regards, Ben.
