[Simple-support] Deserialisation of XML document with multiple namespaces

[Dave M. <dav...@gm...>]

Hi,

I am attempting to read an xml document which has common element names 
across namespaces.

<content>
<element>
<name/>
<xy1:sub_element xmlns:xy1="http://www.xxx.com">
<xy1:detail_1/>
<xy1:detail_2/>
</xy1:sub_element>
<xy2:sub_element xmlns:xy2="http://www.yyy.com">
<xy2:something_else/>
<xy2:something_different/>
</xy2:sub_element>
</element>
</content>

I have tried many ways to resolve this, but come up with errors which 
ever way I go, e.g. duplicate annotation in the java class

public class XmlElement {

         private String name;

         @Element(name="sub_element")
         @Namespace(prefix="xy1", reference="http://www.xxz.com)")
         private ThingOne thingOne;

         @Element(name="sub_element")
         @Namespace(prefix="xy2", reference="http://www.xxz.com)")
         private ThingTwo thingTwo;
}

Any ideas as to how this should be done?  If I comment out the 
'thingTwo' sub_element, it fails with an exception indicating that the 
element 'sub_element' has been declared twice, which seems to indicate 
it is ignoring the namespace?

Thanks in anticipation of a solution.

You will have to use a Visitor for this. This will allow you to apply namespaces without the use of annotations. There are examples of Visitors in the test cases and in the tutorial.
