I am having problems reading the attributes of objects that are generated from an abstract schema. The attributes of the child class unmarshall properly but those that exist in the base class dont show up at all.
The child class is defined as follows: <xsd:complexType name="userDataType"> <xsd:annotation> <xsd:documentation>Represents Key/Value Attribute assigned to a User</xsd:documentation> </xsd:annotation> <xsd:complexContent> <xsd:extension base="common:entityType"> <xsd:sequence> <xsd:element name="collectionDate" type="xsd:dateTime" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" /> <xsd:element name="data" type="tns:dataType" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" /> <xsd:element name="dataSource" type="dataSource:dataSourceType" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" /> <xsd:element name="user" type="tns:userType" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" /> </xsd:sequence> </xsd:extension> </xsd:complexContent> </xsd:complexType> And its parent is defined: <xsd:complexType name="entityType" abstract="true"> <xsd:sequence> <xsd:element name="id" type="tns:textType" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" /> <xsd:element name="link" type="atom:linkType" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" /> <xsd:element name="createDate" type="xsd:dateTime" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" /> <xsd:element name="updateDate" type="xsd:dateTime" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" /> <xsd:element name="version" type="tns:positiveIntegerType" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" /> <xsd:element name="extension" type="tns:extensionType" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" /> </xsd:sequence> <xsd:attributeGroup ref="tns:commonAttributes"/> </xsd:complexType> When I POST the following payload: { "collectionDate": "2010-01-20T10:07:46.629-05:00", "createDate": "2008-09-20T10:07:46.629-04:00", "data": { "name": "WeightPounds", "value": 134 }, "dataSource": { "id": "453ba2" }, "updateDate": "2008-11-20T10:07:46.629-05:00", "user": { "id": "0d8a7c33", "firstName": "Mike" }, "id": "1333333" } firstname and collectionDate are populated when it enters my service but the ids are not. I simply dont get any attribute defined in the base entityType. Any idea why? The project is hosted here: https://github.com/MacFlecknoe/service-repository-sample The schema are located here: https://github.com/MacFlecknoe/service-repository-sample/tree/master/schema/src/main/resources/schema/entity and https://github.com/MacFlecknoe/service-repository-sample/tree/master/schema/src/main/resources/schema/common And my configuration for the JsonProvider is here: https://github.com/MacFlecknoe/service-repository-sample/blob/master/user-data/service/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/beans.xml I really appreciate the help as we are in the last stages of development and only just discovered this problem. Thanks! Mike
