This should work, provided you did not disable validation at the Xerces-C++
level (since, unlike for attributes with default values, for elements XSD-
generated code relies on the underlying parser to "expand" the default
values). What is the exact error that you are getting and what do you do
to parse this XML (i.e., show the relevant C++ fragment)?
