How to Convert Complex Type in to java.lang.string during class generation from schema(.xsd) using JAXB

Question

I have an schema where a complex element 'LOBCd' is defined of Complex Type 'PC_LINE_OF_BUSINESS'.

Schema :

<xsd:element name="LOBCd" type="PC_LINE_OF_BUSINESS"/>
<xsd:complexType name="PC_LINE_OF_BUSINESS">
    <xsd:simpleContent>
        <xsd:extension base="xsd:string">
        <xsd:attribute name="type" type="xsd:string"/>
        </xsd:extension>
    </xsd:simpleContent>
</xsd:complexType>

Now I want this LOB_Cd in form of string in java model class after model generation using JAXB. But currently there is a java file 'PCLINEOFBUSINESS' is getting generated and 'ClaimsPartyInfo' where lobCd type is 'PCLINEOFBUSINESS'.

I required 'lobCd' in java.lang.String in the generated 'ClaimsPartyInfo' file.

Java:

public class ClaimsPartyInfo {
@XmlElement(name = "LOBCd", required = true)
protected PCLINEOFBUSINESS lobCd;

Please help.

Answer 1

Your " PC_LINE_OF_BUSINESS " is of complex type so JAXB will create a class for it and whatever your root node for this that, this Class " PC_LINE_OF_BUSINESS " will be referenced there.

You can try modifying your XSD if you are designing it.

Or otherwise you have to modify the Classes manually after identifying it.
