JAXB2 Simplify Plugin simplifies complex properties (like xOrYOrZ) which XJC (JAXB schema compiler) sometimes generates.

JAXB2 Simlify plugin is a plugin for schema compiler which simplifies "weird" properties like xOrYOrZ which XJC sometimes generates. JAXB2 Simlify plugin is a part of the extensive plugins package.

Purpose

If you use XJC to generate Java classes from XML schemas, sometimes instead of the expected properties x, y, z you get something weird-looking like xOrYOrZ. This happens in a number of cases, for instance with repeatable choices:

<xs:choice maxOccurs="unbounded">
    <xs:element name="x" type="..."/>
    <xs:element name="y" type="..."/>
    <xs:element name="z" type="..."/>
</xs:choice>

Working with such "complex" properties is not convenient. JAXB2 Simlify plugin allows splitting such properties into several "simple" properties (ex. x, y, z).

Usage

  • Add to the XJC classpath.
  • Declare http://jaxb2-commons.dev.java.net/basic/simplify as an extension namespace.
  • Use simplify:as-element-property or simplify:as-reference-property customization elements to specify, which properties you want to simplify.

Please refer to the full documentation for more information
