newbe: can xjc generate enums classes from anonomous types

[Mike Skells]

hi,

if I have a global simple type (restriction of xs:NCName) definition then xjc will generate an enum class, but if the simple type is nested inside another type declaration then it will not. |Is there a way to make xjc generate enums for all of these cases or do I have to extract all of the simple type declarations into global declarations
so this schema


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" elementFormDefault="qualified">
        <xs:element name="def">

generates

[Wolfgang Laun-2]

Don't you want enum Types for your one-two types?

The global simple-type should produce an enum type GlobalType anyway.
Anonymous enumeration-restrictions won't result in
enum types, not even nested ones.

But you could instruct JAXB to use this class for your
anonymous inlined types by inserting
<xs:annotation><xs:appinfo>
  <xs:class ref="where.it.is.GlobalType"/>
</..></..>
in all your anonymous <xs:simpleType> definitions.

It should also be possible to put this into an external bindings
file, but then you would have to define the locations by
XPATH expressions. This doesn't appeal to me.

My advice would be to rewrite the schema, if possible.
