MOXy and JAXB Marshaller.Listener getting XMLRoot object [message #989577] Thu, 06 December 2012 19:56 Go to next message

I have a JAXB Marshaller.Listener, and I am getting an XMLRoot object in beforeMarshal instead of a JAXBElement. Is this expected behavior? I am trying to read the fields with source.getClass().getDeclaredFields(), and it doesn't work on the XMLRoot without making this MOXy specific.

I am using EclipseLink 2.4.1 with CXF 2.7.0.

Thanks,

Patrick

Hi Patrick,

It looks like you've identified a bug here, XMLRoot is EclipseLink's legacy version of a JAXBElement, and it should not be given to the Listener when in a JAXB context.

We'll begin working on a fix, I've entered a bug that you can track here:

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=396073

If you have any more information you'd like to provide, you can add it directly to the bug.

Thanks,
Rick

Hi Patrick,

No, nothing more needed. I have a patch that will ensure you get back a corresponding JAXBElement instead of XMLRoot. It should be reviewed and checked in on Monday.

Hi Patrick, I've checked in a fix, it should be available in the Dec 10 nightly build. Thanks for turning that up!

Rick,

I verified that the nightly build is now returning a JAXBElement as expected. Thanks again for the quick response.

I have another question about the behavior of the Marhsaller.Listener in MOXy versus the reference implementation. In the RI, the Marshaller.Listener is called with the JAXBElement, and is subsequently called with an Object of the type parameter (what would be returned by JAXBElement<T>.getValue()), and then on to any children of T. In MOXY, it is called with the JAXBElement, and then skips right to the children of T. Do you know the reason for this difference?

Thanks,

Patrick

Hi Patrick, I had noticed that the RI was firing that event more than once, but I don't think we were ever aware of that behaviour from the RI. I don't believe there was a conscious decision NOT to fire it. The javadocs and JAXB Spec information don't indicate that these methods should be called multiple times, so I think EclipseLink is satisfying the contract.

You shouldn't be at a loss for any information, as you can always get the value from the JAXBElement.

Rick,

Yes, getting the value from JAXBElement does work, but the behavior will be slightly different in the RI, as I will end up processing the root element twice. Either way, it will work for my needs.

Thanks,

Patrick
