Empty array Vs array with empty elements

I am using an Excel as a data source to populate my requests. soapUI creates arrays with empty elements when there is no data for those elements.

Ex - <get:Dependents>
<get:Dependent>
</get:Dependent>
<get:Dependent/>
<get:Dependent/>
<get:Dependent/>
</get:Dependents>
this requests fails the XSD validation.

How can I create an empty array and not an array with empty elements?
ex- </get:Dependents>

    Yes. And have Remove Empty Content Property set to true. In case of an array, it returns an array with empty elements instead of an empty arry.

    Adding context.RemoveEmptyRecursive = true to the Setup Script of the TestCase did the trick.
