I met this problem before. Checking your DTD file, especially the element's attribute list, don't forget to put a default value or "#required" after the attribute list, I mean put it before the end bracket.
I have another problem after fixing this one. My program did generate many classes according to the elements in XML file, but it also generated a class which is used in every class, but don't have definition at all, supposely, the definition class should be generated by the program too. Is there any body can help me? I posted this problem a few days ago, but no answer yet. Thank you in advance. Following is a auto-generated class:
/* DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE - it is machine-generated */
/* File: FirstName.java - generated by XML Class Generator version 1.0.0 at Mon Feb 21 08:43:58 EST 2000 */
import java.io.*;
import java.net.*;
import oracle.xml.classgen.CGNode;
import oracle.xml.classgen.CGDocument;
import oracle.xml.classgen.InvalidContentException;
import oracle.xml.parser.v2.*;
* The Node Class (for the root element FirstName)
public class FirstName extends CGNode
* Default Constructor
public FirstName()
super("FirstName");
isValidating = true;
* Constructor taking <code>#PCDATA</code>
* @param theData text for the Element
* @exception InvalidContentException <code>theData</code> is invalid
public FirstName(String theData) throws InvalidContentException
this();
super.addData(theData);
isValidating = true;
* Add a text node to <code>FirstName</code>
* @param theData value of the text node
* @exception InvalidContentException if the value of the text node is invalid
public void addData(String theData) throws InvalidContentException
super.addData(theData);
* Returns the EmployeeXML_xml DTD.
* @return the DTD
* @see oracle.xml.parser.v2.DTD
public DTD getDTDNode()
return EmployeeXML_xml.globalDTD;
* Validate contents of element <code>FirstName</code>
* @return true if valid contents, else false
* @exception InvalidContentException if the document is not valid
public void validateContent() throws InvalidContentException
super.validateContent();
* Get Document Class <code>EmployeeXML_xml</code>
* @return <code>EmployeeXML_xml</code> class
public EmployeeXML_xml getDocument()
return (EmployeeXML_xml)super.getCGDocument();
EmployeeXML_xml is not defined anywhere in the package. (My xml file's name is employeeXML.xml, and dtd file's name is employeeDTD.dtd)
