11.17. DataBinding
11.17.1. Using JAXB with non annotated classes
Since 2.0.2
JAXB is heavily driven by Java Annotations on the Java Bindings. It currently doesn't support an external binding configuration. This recently became an issue for us on JBossESB since the JBossWS 2.0.0 native SOAP stack uses JAXB to perform the SOAP to Java bindings (see 1, 2). It's an issue for JBossESB simply because it needs to be able to support user definition of JBossWS native Webservice Endpoints (e.g. JSR 181) using Java typesets that have not been "JAXB Annotated" (see JAXB Introductions On JBossWS).
In order to support this, we built on a JAXB RI feature whereby it allows you to specify a RuntimeInlineAnnotationReader implementation during JAXBContext creation (see JAXBRIContext).
We call this feature "JAXB Annotation Introduction" and we've made it available for general consumption i.e. it can be checked out, built and used from SVN:
