Usage

@XmlSchemaType annotation can be used with the following program elements:

• a JavaBean property
• field
• package

@XmlSchemaType annotation defined for Java type applies to all references to the Java type from a property/field. A @XmlSchemaType annotation specified on the property/field overrides the @XmlSchemaType annotation specified at the package level.

This annotation can be used with the following annotations: XmlElement , XmlAttribute .

Example 1: Customize mapping of XMLGregorianCalendar on the field.

 //Example: Code fragment
 public class USPrice {
 @XmlElement
 @XmlSchemaType(name="date")
 @XmlSchemaType("date")
 public XMLGregorianCalendar date;
 }
 
 <!-- Example: Local XML Schema element -->
 <xs:complexType name="USPrice"/>
 <xs:sequence>
 <xs:element name="date" type="xs:date"/>
 </sequence>
 </xs:complexType>
 

Example 2: Customize mapping of XMLGregorianCalendar at package level

 package foo;
 @javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlSchemaType(
 name="date", "date", type=javax.xml.datatype.XMLGregorianCalendar.class)
 }
