JAXB does not call Setter method
I don't understand what I am doing wrong. I want to unmarshall xml using JAXB, but I noticed that the setter method was not called. I am using Java 1.5. Getters and Setters in the Attribute.java class - work correctly, but in the Configuration.java class - the Setter method does not call. Could you show me where I'm going wrong?
@XmlRootElement(name="configuration")
@XmlAccessorType(XmlAccessType.NONE)
public class Configuration {
public List< Configuration> getItems() {
return new ArrayList<Attribute>(getMap().values());
}
@XmlElement(name="attributes")
public void setItems(List<Attribute> attributes) {
getMap().clear();
for (Attribute attribute : attributes) {
getMap().put(attribute.getName(), attribute);
}
}
private Map<String, Attribute> map;
public Map<String, Attribute> getMap() {
if (map == null) {
map = new HashMap<String, Attribute>();
}
return map;
}
}
My XML looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<configuration>
<attributes name="some_name" type="calculation" value="select ? from dual" priority="0"/>
</configuration>

If a is returned from the getter List
, JAXB impl will use that to add the elements to the collection instead of creating a new one and setting it through the installer.
The purpose of this is to give you the ability to initialize the implementation List
that best suits your domain model.
