I am using fasterxml-jaxb(2.3) module to generate XML but it seems its not reading Xmlns annotation while creating XML. I have the prefix defined in my package-info as below
#javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlNs(prefix = "bla"....
Jackson does not apply the prefix however if i user I use JDK's JAXB for marshalling the prefix is applied to the XML
Jackson does not use Package annotations for anything; so while JAXB annotations are supported (if using JAXB annotations module), no annotations are read from package-info.java.
This because Jackson annotation module is based on inheritance (you can add all annotations on super-classes, and they are visible for sub-types).
You may be able to add a mix-in annotation for super-class (or regular annotation), and that would work.

We have generated jaxb java classes from xsd for our java project.Now can we generate jaxb groovy classes for our new groovy project using xsd? If yes how to generate them?
XJC compiler doesn't support Groovy. What's wrong with just Java files? Just keep them separate in your project and everything should be fine. It's ok to mix Java and Groovy in one projects:
src
main
groovy <<< your Groovy code
resources
generated
java <<< XJC generated classes go here
I'm trying to generate Java classes from a set of XML schemas. The following binding file is used to handle mixed content in the schemas:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<jaxb:bindings
xmlns:jaxb="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/jaxb" jaxb:version="2.1"
xmlns:xjc= "http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/jaxb/xjc" jaxb:extensionBindingPrefixes="xjc">
<jaxb:globalBindings generateMixedExtensions="true"/>
</jaxb:bindings>
The code generation works fine but one of the generated classes has an #OverrideAnnotationOf from the com.sun.xml.internal.bind.annotation package. This package is included in rt.jar but the regular java compiler can't find it (and probably shouldn't find it because it is sun internal).
Is there a way to deal with the mixed content and not have the OverrideAnnotationOf from a sun internal package in my generated code?
In Java 6 and up, oracle moved the JAXB implementation embedded within the JRE to a different package to prevent potential collisions with the external JAXB reference implementation.
So the class OverrideAnnotationOf got moved from package com.sun.xml.bind.annotation to package com.sun.xml.internal.bind.annotation.
The embedded xjc, however, still generates java files that are annotated with com.sun.xml.bind.annotation.OverrideAnnotationOf(!)
Therefore, the JAXB implementation shipped with Java 7 will not understand its own output generated with generateMixedExtensions="true". Even if you use the -XDignore.symbol.file option.
I have a project that does JAXB generation with framework.xsd. This generates a jar with the xsd and the jaxb objects and other classes around that stuff.
Then another group(two different groups) will be extending framework.xsd and subxmling using the schema extends stuff to extend objects in framework.xsd. They also want to generate jaxb objects BUT they want their SomeClass.java to obviously extend my Framework.java and don't want to end up with a whole new heirarchy.
Is this even possible?
How to do something like this? as the solution would need to
tell the jaxb compiler that the namespace yy is already generated so do not generate
tell the jaxb compiler that it needs to refer to the classes in the package zzzzzz or to look at the xjb file from the framework jar file or something.
Is this possible?
thanks,

You want to use an episode file : http://weblogs.java.net/blog/kohsuke/archive/2006/09/separate_compil.html when generating JAXB classes for your first schema.
$ xjc -episode framework.episode framework.xsd
Then the other group that consumes your framework.jar should:
1) import your schema in their own schema e.g.:
<xsd:import namespace="http://www.myorg.com/framework" schemaLocation="framework.xsd"/>
2) generate their JAXB classes
$ xjc extend.xsd -b framework.episode
(they'll need a copy of your xsd and episode file at xjc time, as well as the framework.jar in the classpath)
Note that according to the blog post above, you can also place the framework.episode file inside your jar (e.g. /META-INF/sun-jaxb.episode for JAXB RI at least - other JAXB impl may have other ways of accomplishing the same thing), so that the -b framework.episode option can be omitted. I personally find it a bit impractical, you still need the XSD anyway.
I am trying to generate Java classes from a XSD schema using the xjc command that comes with JAXB.
My schema looks like:
<xs:schema xmlns="..."
xmlns:ext="http://schemas.myco.com/ext" ... >
<xs:import namespace="http://schemas.myco.com/ext"
schemaLocation="http://myco.com/schemas/ext.xsd"/>
...
The problem is that the schemaLocation URI does not exist and I can not modify the XSD file. That is why the generation process fails with errors such as "src-resolve: Cannot resolve the name 'ext:Resource_Type' to a(n) 'type definition' component".
Is there any way to force JAXB to use a local copy of ext.xsd file during the process without modifying the original XSD file ?
Two possible solutions:
JAXB Episode File:
http://weblogs.java.net/blog/2006/09/05/separate-compilation-jaxb-ri-21
or
XML Catalogs (search Google)
I know I can annotate my classes in Groovy with annotations, but can I write the annotation itself in Groovy (as opposed to just using annotation written in Java)? If so, from what version?
You can define annotations in Groovy.
