it could be because you don't have any optional elements as Radu mentioned. I believe you have to have the minOccurs attribute something like this <element name="test" type="string" minOccurs="0" /> ppl, please correct me if i am wrong.

For arrays (elements that can appear more than 1 time), you can call sizeOfXXX(), that would be the equivalent method.

I see there is an isSetAttribute() for each attribute, but I don't the see an equivalent method for the element... Did you do a getElementArray() and test if the array is empty ? I just feel it strange that there is no testing method for element... Thank you for you help, i know that my question is a little bit stupid but I didn't find any answers on the XMLBeans website.
