For each global element, a document control class is generated. These are named <elem name>_CC.

The document class contains a value that represents the global element, along with encodeDocument and decodeDocument methods.

Here is an abbreviated example:

Java:

   public class MyDoubleElement_CC implements XBDocumentCodec
   {
      private XBContext _xbContext = new XBContext();
      ...
      public double getValue() {...}

      public void setValue(double value) {...}

      public void decodeDocument(XMLStreamReader reader) {...}

      public void encodeDocument(XBXmlEncoder encoder) {...}

      ...
   }

C#:

   public class MyDoubleElement_CC : XBDocumentCodec
   {
      private XBContext _xbContext = new XBContext();
      ...
      public double getValue() {...}

      public void setValue(double value) {...}

      public void decodeDocument(XMLStreamReader reader) {...}

      public void encodeDocument(XBXmlEncoder encoder) {...}

      ...
   }

To use the namespace prefixes generated for your schema, do the following before calling encodeDocument (or, create and pass your own array):

   encoder.setNamespaces(_myschema.namespaceContext);
