Java-to-Schema Examples

Schema Content Ordering in the Example
The purchase order code example demonstrates the effects of schema content ordering using
the @XmlAccessorOrder annotation at the package and class level, and the
@XmlType.propOrder annotation on a class.
Class package-info.java defines @XmlAccessorOrder to be ALPHABETICAL for the package.
The public fields shipTo and billTo in class PurchaseOrderType will be affected in the
generated schema content order by this rule. Class USAddress defines the @XmlType.propOrder
annotation on the class. User of this annotation demonstrates user-defined property order
superseding ALPHABETICAL order in the generated schema.
The generated schema file can be found in the
tut-install/javaeetutorial5/examples/jaxb/j2s-xmlAccessorOrder/build/schemas/
directory.

XmlAdapter Field Example
The XmlAdapter Field example demonstrates how to use the XmlAdapter interface and the
@XmlJavaTypeAdapter annotation to provide a custom mapping of XML content into and out
of a HashMap (field) that uses an int as the key and a String as the value.
