SchemaProperty returning null for maxOccurs = unbounded

Hi!

 

I'm having an problem where a SchemaProperty retrieved with
getElementProperties() for an element with maxOccurs="unbounded" returns
null from getMaxOccurs().. shouldn't it return MAX_INT or something? The
underlying SchemaTypeSystem was created dynamically from an xsd with
XmlBeans.compileXsd and not from an precompiled jar/xsb (if that should
matter..)

 

Thanks for any reply!

The API of SchemaProperty.getMaxOccurs() states: "     * Returns the
maxOccurs value for this particle, or null if it     * is unbounded." It's a
design choice. If we returned MAX_INT then we wouldn't e able to handle the
case when maxOccurs is > MAX_INT, right? If you are not worried about that
case, just use SchemaProperty.getIntMaxOccurs() which will indeed return
MAX_INT for the "unbounded" case. Fair enough?
