I am new to xml and I am having problem understanding the QName concept.

 

I am trying to exchange attributes of type string between two saml aware apps.

 

I create the SAMLAttribute in the following way:

 

      // qname for Group
      QName qname = new QName(
        "urn:xyz:group",     //java.lang.String namespace,
        "Group"              //java.lang.String localName
        );

 

      // Create a SAMLAttribute object to be Added to SAMLAttributeStatement
      SAMLAttribute wlesGroup = new SAMLAttribute (
        "myGroup",        //java.lang.String name,
        "urn:xyz:group",  //java.lang.String namespace,
        qname,            //QName type,
        0,                //long lifetime,
        groups            //java.util.Collection values
        );

But when I am trying to reconstruct the object on the other end I get the following exception:

org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: cvc-elt.4.2: Cannot resolve 'typens:Group' to a type definition for element 'AttributeValue'.

 

All I want to do is send a Collection of Strings from one end the other.

What am I missing.

 

Thanks,

Kamlesh
