Unsupported binding namespace exception for vendor specific namespace - xsd

Question

I have a Vendor.xsd, where the namespace definition is referencing a vendor specific namespace http://vendor.com/xjc-plugins. A snippet is given below:
...
<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
xmlns:common="http://annox.dev.java.net"
xmlns:jaxb="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/jaxb" xmlns:vendor="http://vendor.com/xjc-plugins"
elementFormDefault="qualified"
jaxb:extensionBindingPrefixes="vendor common"
jaxb:version="2.0">
...
xs:complexType name="VendorType">
<xs:annotation>
<xs:appinfo>
<vendor:package>vendor.package</vendor:package>
</xs:appinfo>
</xs:annotation>
...
When I try to generate jaxbs by using either xjc from command line or maven-jaxb22-plugin the following exception occurs:
Unsupported binding namespace "http://vendor.com/xjc-plugins". Perhaps you meant "http://annox.dev.java.net"?
The maven plugin I am using is given here:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.jvnet.jaxb2.maven2</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-jaxb22-plugin</artifactId>
<version>0.13.1</version>

<artifactId>jaxb2-basics-tools</artifactId>
<version>1.11.1</version>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
Any ideas welcome ?

You do not seem to include your XJC plugin in plugins section of the maven-jaxb2-plugin configuration. Binding namespace must be acknowledged by some plugin. You only include jaxb2-basics but not the plugin which would acknowledge http://vendor.com/xjc-plugins.
