[Jython-users] boolean and JAXB

[Frank C. <fc...@pu...>]

I'm using a JAXB created XML binding to output logged results to a 
file. The binding lets me marshal an XML tree using this form:

# Import the JAXB classes
from javax.xml.bind import JAXBContext;
from javax.xml.bind import JAXBException;
from javax.xml.bind import Marshaller;

# Import Java content classes generated by JAXB binding compiler
from com.pushtotest.tool.xml.results import ObjectFactory
from com.pushtotest.tool.xml.results import Testmaker

# Import TestMaker methods
from com.pushtotest.testmaker.gui import TestMaker
from code import InteractiveInterpreter

# Create the JAXBContext and object factory
rc = JAXBContext.newInstance( "com.pushtotest.tool.xml.results" )
objFactory = ObjectFactory()

# Create an empty TestMaker element entry
tm = objFactory.createTestmaker()
tm.setVersion( 1 )
resp = objFactory.createResponse()
tm.setResponse( resp )
resp.setUrl("http://examples.pushtotest.com")

# create a Marshaller and marsall to console
m = rc.createMarshaller()

m.setProperty( Marshaller.JAXB_FORMATTED_OUTPUT, 1 )

m.marshal( tm, testmaker.getOutputStream() )

Unfortunately the m.setProperty() method throws an exception that 
complains that the second parameter needs to be a boolean value. It 
appears Jython is passing-in an integer one value instead of a boolean 
true. I even tried the following:

from java.lang import Boolean
b = Boolean("true").booleanValue()
m.setProperty( Marshaller.JAXB_FORMATTED_OUTPUT, b )

But that gives the same results, the setProperty method gets an int 
instead of a boolean.

Any ideas?
