#58 Values written when xsi:nil is set

[Arne Grimstrup]

Following advise to try using nillable elements in schemata, I created a schema with a nillable element and generated a binding for it. The test document was read correctly but on output I noticed that the nil value was written as:

<ns1:assignedPriority xsi:nil="true">0</ns1:assignedPriority>

rather than

<ns1:assignedPriority xsi:nil="true" />

or

<ns1:assignedPriority xsi:nil="true"></ns1:assignedPriority>

I tried to reprocess the output from the binding and received the following stack trace:

Traceback (most recent call last):
