Description Blaise Doughan CLA 2011-09-02 09:54:23 EDT 
MOXy is currently generating attributes/elements of type xs:anySimpleType for char fields/properties instead of the correct xs:unsignedShort.
Comment 1 Blaise Doughan CLA 2011-09-12 10:08:29 EDT 
CORRECTION:
MOXy should generate xs:string for char fields/properties.

To specify the XML schema type as xs:unsignedShort the @XmlSchemaType(name="unsignedShort") annotation should be used.  Unfortunately there is a bug in MOXy with this.  For more information see:
