What Jacob says. I'd like to emphasize two things:
1. It's not desireable that XMLBeans prevents you from creating invalid
content, here's why
<complexType name="foo">
<sequence>
<element name="a"/>
<element name="b"/>
</sequence>
</complexType>
If you start with an empty "foo" and add and "a", it's invalid because
there's a "b" required. If you start by adding a "b", it's invalid
because it's not preceded by an "a". So you're deadlocked.
2. XMLBeans gives you the ability to call 'validate' on an XmlObject
without having to serialize it to XML, which is something that is, I
believe, unique to XMLBeans.
So I think you have the tools to create valid documents.

Subject: Re: XMLBeans handling of <choice>
I don't think XMLBeans will do anything to "PREVENT" you from
doing this, however when you go to validate things will most likely
fail.

This question could also be applied to other Schema
types.
I'd like to know if the Java types produced by the
generator corresponding to a <choice> type in a schema would PREVENT me
from setting the member of an object to a combination of elements that
the choice is declaring as mutually exclusive?
Example includes the schema and the generated classes.
In the example in a choice I have childA and childB. It
looks like the implementation class for the containing element is
agnostic to whether i set one or both of these children.
