Did you raise the issue ?
Did you solve it ?

Hi,

It has been a year since this post but I still get th eproblem with speing ws 1.5.4, castor 1.2. I ended up following the tip here & modifying the code just to ignore the attribute in question. Even though I can set properties on the bean like namespacemappings and ignoreExtraAttributes, it did not help.

Can we raise a JIRA issue re this?

Thanks

Hi all,

the issue seems to be still present in spring-2.5.6

is there another fix / workaround for this?

or is it so uncommon to use xsd:nillable elements in Web Services? (is it WSI-compliant btw?)

thx and regards,

I don't use Castor anymore - I don't think it supports namespaces very well - so now I use jaxb - more fiddly setting up but definitely worth it when you have a large webservice with all the wsdls and schemas provided.

If you can't use jaxb then probably best just to write your own unmarshaller.
