    Issue using XmlMixed, XmlRefrences, XmlRefrence annotations

    kyle.bober

      I am having an issue with the XmlMixed, XmlRefrences, XmlRefrence annotations... Or so that is what I think is causing the issue.

      I have a base class called CriteriaSO

      @XmlRootElement(name="Criteria")
      @XmlType(propOrder = {"sortType"})
      @XmlSeeAlso({IdCriteriaSO.class})
      public abstract class CriteriaSO {
      
      protected SortType theSortType;
      
      public CriteriaSO() {
      super();
      this.theSortType = KeywordAnalysisSortType.ASCENDING;
      }
      
      @XmlElement(name="SortType", required=true, nillable=false)
      public SortType getSortType() {
      return theSortType;
      }
      
      public void setSortType(SortType aSortType) {
      theSortType = aSortType;
      }
      
      }
      


      I have a two classes that extend the CriteriaSO class ::

      @XmlRootElement(name="IdCriteria")
      @XmlType(propOrder = {"Ids"})
      public class IdCriteriaSO extends CriteriaSO {
      
      private static final long serialVersionUID = 20090430001L;
      
      private List<Integer> theIds;
      
      public IdCriteriaSO() {
      super(SortType.ASCENDING);
      this.theKeywordAnalysisIds = new ArrayList<Integer>();
      }
      
      
      @XmlElementWrapper(name = "Ids", nillable=false, required=true)
      @XmlElement(name = "Id", required = true, nillable = false)
      public List<Integer> getIds() {
      return theIds;
      }
      
      public void setIds(List<Integer> aIds) {
      theIds = aIds;
      }
      }
      
      
      @XmlRootElement(name="UserIdCriteria")
      @XmlType(propOrder = {"userIds"})
      public class UserIdCriteriaSO extends CriteriaSO {
      
      private static final long serialVersionUID = 20090430001L;
      
      private List<Integer> theUserIds;
      
      public UserIdCriteriaSO() {
      super(KeywordAnalysisSortType.ASCENDING);
      this.theUserIds = new ArrayList<Integer>();
      }
      
      
      @XmlElementWrapper(name = "userIds", nillable=false, required=true)
      @XmlElement(name = "userId", required = true, nillable = false)
      public List<Integer> getUserIds() {
      return theUserIds;
      }
      
      public void setUserIds(List<Integer> anUserIds) {
      theUserIds = anUserIds;
      }
      }
      


      I then created a List wrapper to contain the CriteriaSO object instances like so ::

      @XmlRootElement(name="CriteriaList")
      @XmlSeeAlso({IdCriteriaSO.class, UserIdCriteriaSO.class})
      public class CriteriaListSO {
      
      private static final long serialVersionUID = 20090424001L;
      
      private List<CriteriaSO> theCriteria;
      
      public CriteriaListSO() {
      super();
      this.theCriteria = new ArrayList<KeywordAnalysisCriteriaSO>();
      }
      
      
      @XmlMixed
      @XmlElementRefs( {
      @XmlElementRef(name = "IdCriteria", type = IdCriteriaSO.class),
      @XmlElementRef(name = "UserIdCriteria", type = UserIdCriteriaSO.class) })
      public List<CriteriaSO> getCriteria() {
      return theCriteria;
      }
      
      public void setCriteria(List<sCriteriaSO> anCriteria) {
      theCriteria = anCriteria;
      }
      }
      


      I have a web service method that takes a CriteriaListSO object as a parameter.

      @WebService(name="testService", serviceName="testService")
      @SOAPBinding(style=SOAPBinding.Style.DOCUMENT, use=SOAPBinding.Use.LITERAL, parameterStyle=SOAPBinding.ParameterStyle.WRAPPED)
      public class TestService {
      
      
      @WebMethod(operationName = "echoCriteria")
      @WebResult(name = "CriteriaList")
      @RequestWrapper(localName="echoCriteriaRequest")
      @ResponseWrapper(localName="echoCriteriaResponse")
      public CriteriaListSO echoCriteria(@WebParam(name = "CriteriaList")CriteriaListSO criteriaListSO) throws RemoteException {
      
      return criteriaListSO;
      }
      }
      


      My issue is everytime I send a web service request to the echoCriteria web method with some CriteriaSO objects it doesn't set them in the CriteriaList object.
      What I do see is one of the CriteriaList - ArrayList element's is being set to an object of type java.lang.String. And the contents of the String is the following
      "\n" For each CriteriaSO object I add to the SOAP request it will add an additional \n to the string contents.

      I am using JBoss 4.2.1

      Any help or guidance would be appreciated. I have spent a few hours now on diffrent annotation configurations trying to figure this out.
