Adding Data in XmlObject

Question

I have to code a Web service client, compliant to Axis2 1.5.4. The part of code giving the problem is as follows:

String my_var = "some value";
MetaDataEntry metaDataEntry = MetaDataEntry.Factory.newInstance();
metaDataEntry.setKey(MetaDataKey.Enum.forInt(key));
metaDataEntry.setValue(my_var);

Now basically the setKey woks fine but setValue expects an XmlObject value while according to the sample response document I have got, the xml structure should be like :

....
    <MetaDataEntry>
        <key>some_key_enum</key>
        <value>some _value</value>
    </MetaDataEntry>
....

I've tried using :

MetaDataEntry.setValue(XmlObject.Factory.parse("<value>"+my_var+"</value>"));

but it formats the value tag as <value><value>some_value</value></value>. I've also tried :

metaDataEntry.setValue(XmlObject.Factory.parse(my_var));

but it gives the exception: Unexpected Element: CDATA. Can anybody please help me write the correct statement?

The only element having problem is value element. The value element is declared as xs:anytype. Now, when client code is generated through wsdl2java, an interface is created for MetaDataEntry element and inside that I have setValue method and that accepts XmlObject type of value. I am basically facing problem in how can i pass a simple text value in setValue method such that there is no nesting of value tag. — Abhishek Kapoor

Try using an XmlString value:

metaDataEntry.setValue(XmlString.Factory.newValue(my_var));
