Description
I think that there is a bug with setting the java-type in the binding file for an attribute. The problem seems to be that the java-type attribute of the member element has no effect if the attribute to be manipulated did not specify a type in the original schema. If the attribute has a type, then the java-type can be used to modify this mapping.
Below is the binding file. It is attempting to set the java-type for an attribute named 'use'.
<!-- binding file used -->
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<binding xmlns:cbf="http://www.castor.org/SourceGenerator/Binding"
defaultBindingType='element' >
<attributeBinding name="complexType:TestType/@use">
<member name="myUse" java-type="java.lang.String"/>
</attributeBinding>
</binding>
Below is the example schema. If the attribute has no 'type' attribute, then the java-type has no effect. If, as below, a type is specified, then the java-type can be used to modify the type.
<!-- schema -->
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsd:schema xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
targetNamespace="http://www.mac.com/neiltaylor/xsdBinding">
<xsd:element name="test" type="TestType" >
</xsd:element>
<xsd:complexType name="TestType" >
<xsd:simpleContent>
<xsd:extension base="xsd:string">
<xsd:attribute name="use" type="xsd:integer" />
</xsd:extension>
</xsd:simpleContent>
</xsd:complexType>
</xsd:schema>
I have tried this on versions back to 0.9.5.3, and get the same result.

Actually, you are right, if the type is not set on the attribute, you'll get a member myUse with type java.lang.Object ..

Neil, just used the current codebase from SVN trunk to generate Java classes from the schema given. Within TestType, there's a member named myUse of type java.lang.String, which is obviously what one would expect.
