Description Paul Fullbright CLA 2011-10-05 12:48:23 EDT 
(found in head code)

For the following example:

@XmlType
@XmlRootElement(name="FOO")
public enum FooEnum {
	
	@XmlEnumValue("true")
	TRUE("TRUE!!!");
	
	private final String value;
	
	private FooEnum(String value) {
		this.value = value;
	}
}


creating and marshalling a single FooEnum.TRUE should create a document of the form:

<FOO>true</FOO>


The RI does support this.

Note also that the oxm.xsd does not allow for the configuration of either xml-type or xml-root-element on an xml-enum.
Comment 1 Paul Fullbright CLA 2011-10-05 12:50:19 EDT 
I should note that the exception logged by moxy in this case is:


javax.xml.bind.MarshalException
 - with linked exception:
[Exception [EclipseLink-25003] (Eclipse Persistence Services - @VERSION@.@QUALIFIER@): org.eclipse.persistence.exceptions.XMLMarshalException
Exception Description: An error occurred marshalling the object
Internal Exception: Exception [EclipseLink-25007] (Eclipse Persistence Services - @VERSION@.@QUALIFIER@): org.eclipse.persistence.exceptions.XMLMarshalException
Exception Description: A descriptor for class testenum.FooEnum was not found in the project.  For JAXB, if the JAXBContext was bootstrapped using TypeMappingInfo[] you must call a marshal method that accepts TypeMappingInfo as an input parameter.]
...

This implies that @XmlType is being ignored as well, I think.
