Question: How to use JAXB Hyperjaxb

[mooujarrar]

Hi I am new to the whole JAXB world, I want to transform my XSD to POJOs with JPA annotations, it seems that Hyperjax is doing this, I am failing to find documentation to integrate it into my project. I have been using jaxb-plugin-annotate to add custom annotation such as Entity/OneToOne... but it is a lot of work customizing all XSD files and express relations between elements.

Thanks in advance.

Hi @mooujarrar,

Hyperjaxb3 is supported in best-effort mode.
You could use the following plugin for your need :

<plugin>
    <groupId>org.jvnet.hyperjaxb3</groupId>
    <artifactId>hyperjaxb3-maven-plugin</artifactId>
</plugin>

It should generate all classes with expected annotations in it, if schemas and bindings is in src/main/resources folder.

You can then customize the plugin configuration like you would do for the "normal" jaxb-maven-plugin

Depending jaxb / jpa versions, you should choose the corresponding version of the maven-plugin (see README on main github page)
