IllegalAnnotationExceptions on Jaxb-generated fault class.

[jpsilvagallino]

Hi everyone, I'm having some problems on a fault class generated by Jaxb.
When trying to start the service, I get an "IllegalAnnotationExceptions".

The excerpt of the xsd is the following:

<xs:complexType name="ConfigurationFaultType">
		<xs:sequence>
			<xs:annotation>
				<xs:documentation>
            It is required that every ServiceUrl that is missing, contains a duplicate, or does not resolve to a
            reachable service will be indicated in the ErroneousElement array.
        			</xs:documentation>
			</xs:annotation>
			<xs:element name="Message" type="xs:string"/>
			<xs:element name="ErroneousElement" type="tns:ConfigurationEndpointRole" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="8"/>
		</xs:sequence>
		<xs:attribute ref="s:mustUnderstand"/>
	</xs:complexType>

The generated class is:

@XmlAccessorType(XmlAccessType.FIELD)
@XmlType(name = "ConfigurationFaultType", namespace = "http://www.ws-i.org/SampleApplications/SupplyChainManagement/2002-08/Configuration.xsd", propOrder = {
    "message",
    "erroneousElement"
})
public class ConfigurationFaultType extends Exception
{

    /**
	 * 
	 */
	private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
	@XmlElement(name = "Message", required = true)
    protected String message;
    @XmlElement(name = "ErroneousElement")
    protected List<ConfigurationEndpointRole> erroneousElement;
    @XmlAttribute(name = "mustUnderstand", namespace = "http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/")
    @XmlJavaTypeAdapter(ZeroOneBooleanAdapter.class)
    protected Boolean mustUnderstand;
...
...
... (cut-off constructors, getters and setters to shorten)
...

I then added "@WebFault" and "@XmlRootElement" spring tags, but that didn't solve the problem.

The applicable ObjectFactory's code follows:

/**
     * Create an instance of {@link ConfigurationFaultType }
     * 
     */
    public ConfigurationFaultType createConfigurationFaultType() {
        return new ConfigurationFaultType();
    }

The error I'm getting is the following one:

Caused by: com.sun.xml.internal.bind.v2.runtime.IllegalAnnotationsException: 1 counts of IllegalAnnotationExceptions
java.lang.StackTraceElement does not have a no-arg default constructor.
	this problem is related to the following location:
		at java.lang.StackTraceElement
		at public java.lang.StackTraceElement[] java.lang.Throwable.getStackTrace()
		at java.lang.Throwable
		at java.lang.Exception
		at com.mycompany.hr.manufacturer.types.configuration.ConfigurationFaultType
		at public com.mycompany.hr.manufacturer.types.configuration.ConfigurationFaultType com.mycompany.hr.manufacturer.types.configuration.ObjectFactory.createConfigurationFaultType()
		at com.mycompany.hr.manufacturer.types.configuration.ObjectFactory

and I don't know how to get rid of it. I need this class to extend java.lang.Exception (it is legacy code), so I don't know how to take this error away.

Any pointer/hint/solution will be greatly appreciated.
Best regards,
JP

Hello jpsilvagallino,
Have you found the solution to your problem
because I'm having exactly the same with my code...

Thanks for any help!

Hi ikolokou. Well, I did, but is well over a year now, so I don't remember correctly.
I would suggest starting a brand new project and re-generating, that solved many of my problems (not sure if this one in particular, though).

I'm sorry I can not be of much help.
Hope you find a solution.
Regards,
JP
