Jaxb-xml Schema Types, Binary Data

Data that have no "natural" representation with printable characters must, for inclusion in a XML file, still be represent ed in printable characters. The simple technique-consists in converting, the binary byte values to their hexadecimal representations. The XML Schema datatype to use of the IS xsd:hexBinary . A Sample Schema declaration is shown below.

 <  xsd:complextype  name  = "Binarytype"  >  <  xsd:sequence  >  <  xsd:element  name  = "Data"   type  =" Xsd:hexbinary " Span style= "color: #0000ff;" >/>  </ xsd:sequence  >  </ xsd:complextype  Span style= "color: #0000ff;" >>  

The Java class produced by JAXB contains a convenient pair of getters and setters methods for accessing the instance Vari Able (called  data ) that stores the binary data. Its type and the type for passing the binary data is  byte[] . All conversions is handled by JAXB.

 Public class binarytype {    protectedbyte[] data;      Public byte [] GetData () {        return  data;    }      Public void setData (byte[] value) {        this. Data = ((byte[]) value);}    }
