java - Jaxb - map attribute of list element [SOLVED] -

hy, xml looks this:

<forecast>  <time day="2014-06-02">   <symbol></symbol>  </time>  <time day="2014-06-03">   <symbol></symbol>  </time> </forecast> 

i need map day attribute each "time" object looks didn't work expect.

heres classes (java):

public class forecast {     @xmlelement     public list<weatherevent> time; }  public class weatherevent {     @xmlattribute(name = "day")     @xmljavatypeadapter(dateadapter.class)     public date day;     @xmlelement     public symbol symbol; }  public class dateadapter extends xmladapter<string, date> {      private final simpledateformat dateformat = new simpledateformat(             "yyyy-mm-dd't'hh:mm:ss");      @override     public string marshal(date v) throws exception {         return dateformat.format(v);     }      @override     public date unmarshal(string v) throws exception {         date date = dateformat.parse(v);         if (date == null) {             simpledateformat simplierformat = new simpledateformat("yyyy-mm-dd");             date = simplierformat.parse(v);         }         return date;     } } 

how map "day" attribute make not null?

the following line going throw parseexception , exit method , never logic below when date looks like: 2014-06-02.

date date = dateformat.parse(v); 

you need catch exception , ignore it, , apply second formatter it.

date date = null; try {     date date = dateformat.parse(v); } catch(parseexception e) {     simpledateformat simplierformat = new simpledateformat("yyyy-mm-dd");     date = simplierformat.parse(v); } return date;
