[Simpleweb-Support] Xml To Java Object conversion

[Hardik U. <hup...@as...>]

I am converting xml file to java object using simpleframework. I am using generics since my xml's internal nodes gets changing. But simpleframework throws an error while converting. Here is my sample code:

@Root(name = "searchresult", strict = false)

public class ResponseVO<T>

{

    @ElementList(entry = "document", inline = true)

    public List<T> elementVOList = new ArrayList<T>();



    public List<T>  getElementsVOList()

    {

        return elementVOList;

    }



    public void setElementsVOList(List<T>list)

    {

        elementVOList = list;

    }

}

ResponseVO is container for various other VOs as bellow:

@Root(name = "document", strict = false)

public class Projects_Display_VO

{



    @Element(name = "projectname")

    private String projectName;





    @Attribute(name = "id")

    private int tmpid;



    public int getTmpid()

    {

        return tmpid;

    }



    public void setTmpid(int tmpid)

    {

        this.tmpid = tmpid;

    }

    /**

     * ProjectId

     */



    @Element(name = "projectid")

    private String projectID;





    public String getProjectName()

    {

        return projectName;

    }



    public void setProjectName(String projectName)

    {

        this.projectName = projectName;

    }



    public int getProjectID()

    {

        return Integer.parseInt(projectID);

    }



    public void setProjectID(String projectID)

    {

        this.projectID = projectID;

    }

}

And the XML file is As bellow:

<searchresult>

  <query>id:(PROJ2 PROJ6)</query>

  <document id="0">

    <projectid>2</projectid>

    <projectname>Redundant Demo Project</projectname>

    <doctype>Projects</doctype>

    <summary>||Demo Project</summary>

    <title>Redundant Demo Project</title>

  </document>

  <document id="1">

    <projectid>6</projectid>

    <projectname>Redundant Demo Project2</projectname>

    <doctype>Projects</doctype>

    <summary>||Main terminal links.</summary>

    <title>Terminal 5 Project</title>

  </document>

</searchresult>

The code for conversion is as bellow:

ResponseVO<Projects_Display_VO> resp = (ResponseVO<Projects_Display_VO>)  SerializationUtil.deserialize(ResponseVO.class, reader);

Here i am using serializer from simpleframework. But it throws following error

Exception::Attribute 'id' does not have a match in class java.lang.Object at line 5

org.simpleframework.xml.core.AttributeException: Attribute 'id' does not have a match in   class java.lang.Object at line 5

at org.simpleframework.xml.core.Composite.readAttribute(Composite.java:555)

at org.simpleframework.xml.core.Composite.readAttributes(Composite.java:474)

at org.simpleframework.xml.core.Composite.readSection(Composite.java:387


I don't understand whats going wrong here. Does simpleframework supports generics ? Or am I doing something wrong ?
