How to set the default namespace using JAXB

问题

I have a ATOM-XML representation of my data that is returned via a Spring MVC web service. I'm using JAXB to do the serialization, I have a number of namespaces but I want the default namespace set to Atom with no prefix. Here is what I have so far in package-info.java but the atom prefix is being set to ns3.

@XmlSchema(namespace = com.mycomponay.foo.ATOM_NAMESPACE,
xmlns = { 
    @XmlNs(prefix = "foo", namespaceURI = com.mycomponay.foo.NAMESPACE_FOO),
}, elementFormDefault = javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlNsForm.QUALIFIED)
package com.mycompany.web;

import javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlNs;

Also I noticed the namespaces display in chrome but not in Firefox.

回答1:

Try adding an @XmlNs annotation with prefix "" for the namespace you want to appear as the default.

@XmlSchema(
    namespace = com.mycompany.foo.ATOM_NAMESPACE,
    xmlns = { 
        @XmlNs(prefix = "", namespaceURI = com.mycompany.foo.ATOM_NAMESPACE),
        @XmlNs(prefix = "foo", namespaceURI = com.mycompany.foo.NAMESPACE_FOO)
    }, 
    elementFormDefault = javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlNsForm.QUALIFIED)
package com.mycompany.web;

import javax.xml.bind.annotation.*;

Note:

The namespaces specified in the @XmlSchema annotation are meant to affect the generation of the XML Schema and are not guaranteed to be used when a object model is marshalled to XML. However EclipseLink JAXB (MOXy) and recent versions of the JAXB reference implementation will use them whenever possible.

if you are using separate class for XML element, annotate it with namespace="", would work.
