java – JAXB 2. x: Abstract methods are grouped into properties

I have an abstract root class. Let's say a

I have several implementation class extensions a

A has field annotation and some @ xmlelement annotation attributes

A also has abstract methods

When grouping (b extends a), the values returned by the abstract method are grouped as attributes Not expected, right?

@XmlAccessorType(XmlAccessType.FIELD)
public abstract class SpecialProfile extends ContentNodeBean {

  @XmlElement(name="do-index",namespace="my")
  private boolean doIndex = false;

  public abstract SpecialProfileType getSpecialProfileType();

  ... getters and setters for properties ...   
}

Does anyone have the same problem and how to solve it?

I'm using org eclipse. persistence. moxy 2.1. two

Solution

I tried to recreate your problem, but so far I have failed Can you see I'm doing something different from you? Here is my sample code:

One

import javax.xml.bind.annotation.*;

@XmlAccessorType(XmlAccessType.FIELD)
public abstract class A {

    public abstract C getC();
    public abstract void setC(C c);

}

B

import javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlRootElement;

@XmlRootElement
public class B extends A {

    private C c;

    @Override
    public C getC() {
        return c;
    }

    @Override
    public void setC(C c) {
        this.c = c;
    }

}

C

public class C {

}

demonstration

import javax.xml.bind.JAXBContext;
import javax.xml.bind.Marshaller;
import org.eclipse.persistence.Version;

public class Demo {

    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        System.out.println(Version.getVersionString());

        JAXBContext jc = JAXBContext.newInstance(B.class);
        System.out.println(jc);

        B b = new B();
        b.setC(new C());

        Marshaller marshaller = jc.createMarshaller();
        marshaller.marshal(b,System.out);
    }

}

yield

2.1.2.v20101206-r8635
org.eclipse.persistence.jaxb.JAXBContext@100ab23
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<b xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:type="b"><c/></b>

UPDATE

According to your opinion:

>B does not inherit the xmlaccessortype setting of A. > The tag @ xmltransient is not an abstract method, but a field used to implement an accessor on class B

Here is what class B should look like:

import javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlAccessType;
import javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlAccessorType;
import javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlRootElement;
import javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlTransient;

@XmlRootElement
@XmlAccessorType(XmlAccessType.FIELD)
public class B extends A {

    @XmlTransient
    private C c;

    @Override
    public C getC() {
        return c;
    }

    @Override
    public void setC(C c) {
        this.c = c;
    }

}
