XML/Java Type Mappings.

`javax.xml.datatype`API provides XML/Java type mappings.

The following XML standards apply:

- W3C XML Schema 1.0 Part 2, Section 3.2.7-14
- XQuery 1.0 and XPath 2.0 Data Model, xdt:dayTimeDuration
- XQuery 1.0 and XPath 2.0 Data Model, xdt:yearMonthDuration

W3C XML Schema Data Type | Java Data Type
--- | ---
xs:date | {@link javax.xml.datatype.XMLGregorianCalendar}
xs:dateTime | {@link javax.xml.datatype.XMLGregorianCalendar}
xs:duration | {@link javax.xml.datatype.Duration}
xs:gDay | {@link javax.xml.datatype.XMLGregorianCalendar}
xs:gMonth | {@link javax.xml.datatype.XMLGregorianCalendar}
xs:gMonthDay | {@link javax.xml.datatype.XMLGregorianCalendar}
xs:gYear | {@link javax.xml.datatype.XMLGregorianCalendar}
xs:gYearMonth | {@link javax.xml.datatype.XMLGregorianCalendar}
xs:time | {@link javax.xml.datatype.XMLGregorianCalendar}

XQuery 1.0 and XPath 2.0 Data Model | Java Data Type
--- | ---
xdt:dayTimeDuration | {@link javax.xml.datatype.Duration}
xdt:yearMonthDuration | {@link javax.xml.datatype.Duration}

W3C XML Schema data types that have a "natural" mapping to Java types are defined by JSR 31: Java™ Architecture for XML Binding (JAXB) Specification, Binding XML Schema to Java Representations. JAXB defined mappings for XML Schema built-in data types include:

- xs:anySimpleType
- xs:base64Binary
- xs:boolean
- xs:byte
- xs:decimal
- xs:double
- xs:float
- xs:hexBinary
- xs:int
- xs:integer
- xs:long
- xs:QName
- xs:short
- xs:string
- xs:unsignedByte
- xs:unsignedInt
- xs:unsignedShort
