Castor and JAXB compatible - jaxb

If the java classes are generated with Castor and xml message is produced can JAXB be used to unmarshall into classes generated using xjc?
So far we haven't been able to successful unmarshal to customer provided xml.
Any thoughts ?

XPATH from JAXB object

Is there a way to get XPATH from the JAXB Object?
Yes,I googled it and found that I have to use #XmlPath over fields.
I'm generating the POJO using xjc command.Is there a way to tell xjc that I need XPATH over my fields?
#XmlPath (see: http://blog.bdoughan.com/2010/07/xpath-based-mapping.html is an extension in the EclipseLink MOXy implementation of JAXB (JSR-222). Currently neither the reference or EclipseLink implementations of JAXB allow this annotation to be generated starting from an XML Schema.

Does JAXB support reading xml tags dynamcally

Is there any method in jaxb to read the xml tags dynamically.For example i have two xml files both have diffrent tagnames and attributes.I want to read these two xml files using a single method.I don want to use getelementByTagname and all.All i need to read the xml tags dynamically.Does JAXB support this or there is any other concepts which can do this.Thanks in advance
You can create a single JAXBContext that represents multiple models. As long as the root objects are annotated with #XmlRootElement (or #XmlElementDecl) then your JAXB (JSR-222) implementation will instantiate the correct objects based on the XML input.

How to unmarshal WML / xhtml into java ojbjects?

Is it possible to unmarshal WML or xhtml in java objects so that i can query the elements and save the values to DB?
I would like to unmarshal WML/Xhtml from this link to java objects so that i can query the objects using JAXB.
Use jaxp and XSLT to unmarshal the nodes into Java objects:

How jaxb marshaller and unmarshallers uses generated classes

I have generated classes using wsimport/wsconsume for my webservice. I am using JAXB marshaller and unmarshaller support. Can any one tell me how these marshaller/unmarshaller uses gnereated classes? say it is geneated - requestFile,Response File,service,ServiceSoap,ObjectFactory, Package-info. Here Service is name of my webservice.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
JAXB uses the annotations on the generated classes to reflectively marshal/unmarshal XML documents. It tries to use sensible defaults if the annotations are missing.
package-info.java is a weird Java5 thing, which allows you to declare package-level annotations. JAXB uses this is do things like declare package-wide type converters, or XML namespaces.
ObjectFactory is a generate class that provides factory methods for the various JAXB types. You usually don't need to use that yourself.
The generated service classes are used by the JAX-WS runtime to assemble the JAXB-bound model objects into actual SOAP requests and responses.

Element Defaulting using JAXB

I am trying to use JAXB 1.0 provided by JDeveloper 10g version. I have created a Schema definition with elements having default values.
I have following questions:
Whenever I create the Java Content tree using the JAXB generated classes, the java objects should have been created with the default values mentioned in the XML schema. But it doesn't happen. How to make JAXB create the Java objects of an XML document with default values of the elements?
I am trying to add the schemalocation to the marshalled XML document using Marshaller.setProperty( Marshaller.JAXB_SCHEMA_LOCATION, "http://mylocation"); But its not getting reflected in the marshalled XML content.
Have a look at JAXB default value plugin. Some nice additional plugins are mentioned here.
