例如，下面的代码，XmlElement注解用在了Conditions类的conditionList属性的getter方法上，其中conditionList是一个列表类型：

package com.thb;import java.util.List;import jakarta.xml.bind.annotation.XmlAttribute;
import jakarta.xml.bind.annotation.XmlElement;
import jakarta.xml.bind.annotation.XmlRootElement;
import jakarta.xml.bind.annotation.XmlType;
import jakarta.xml.bind.annotation.XmlValue;// 映射到xml中的conditions元素
@XmlRootElement(name = "conditions")
@XmlType(propOrder = {"conditionList"})
public class Conditions {/*** 查询条件列表*/private List<Conditions.Condition> conditionList;@XmlElement(name = "condition")public List<Conditions.Condition> getconditionList(){return this.conditionList;}public void setCondition( List<Conditions.Condition> conditionList) {this.conditionList = conditionList;}@XmlType(propOrder = {"value"})public static class Condition {private String value;/*** 属性名称*/private String name;/*** 属性类型*/private String type;/*** 获取value的值*/@XmlValuepublic String getValue() {return this.value;}/*** 给value赋值* @param value*/public void setValue(String value) {this.value = value;}/*** 获取name的值*/@XmlAttribute(name = "name")public String getName() {return this.name;}/*** 给name赋值* @param name*/public void setName(String name) {this.name = name;}/*** 获取type的值*/@XmlAttribute(name = "type")public String getType() {return this.type;}/*** 给type赋值* @param type*/public void setType(String type) {this.type = type;}}
}

产生的XML Schema如下：

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<xs:schema version="1.0" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"><xs:element name="conditions" type="conditions"/><xs:complexType name="conditions"><xs:sequence><xs:element name="condition" type="condition" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded"/></xs:sequence></xs:complexType><xs:complexType name="condition"><xs:simpleContent><xs:extension base="xs:string"><xs:attribute name="name" type="xs:string"/><xs:attribute name="type" type="xs:string"/></xs:extension></xs:simpleContent></xs:complexType>
</xs:schema>
