Method Detail

getTypeName

QName getTypeName()

Gets the primary XML type ANYTYPE_NAME of the class.

A Java type can be mapped to multiple XML types, but one of them is considered "primary" and used when we generate a schema.

This method returns the 'primary' type name of this built-in leaf, which should be used when values of this type are marshalled.

Specified by:

getTypeName in interface NonElement<T,C>

Returns:

never null.
