Thank you very much for the explanation! Now I understand the problem a 
bit better: in my schemas, many types correspond to single elements, so I 
have overlooked this issue.

These pointers are highly appreciated, it solves the problem when parsing.

The motivation for my original question, however, was as follows: I'm 
using streaming to serialize a large number of child elements of a parent 
element, and for now I had to hardcode the element names for s.next() 
calls. So, I thought that it would be great if I could get this 
information from the types instead.

It seems that I should just keep on using hardcoded values though, as 
there is no easy way around it :-/

All the best,
