Key API

• *.jaxb.JAXBContextFactory

Specifying the EclipseLink Runtime

In order to use EclipseLink Dynamic MOXy as your JAXB implementation, you must identify the EclipseLink DynamicJAXBContextFactory in your jaxb.properties file.

1. Create a text file named jaxb.properties, specifying DynamicJAXBContextFactory as the factory used to build new JAXBContexts.

   javax.xml.bind.context.factory=org.eclipse.persistence.jaxb.dynamic.DynamicJAXBContextFactory

2. Copy the file to your application package (or any of your packages on your classpath).
3. Use the standard JAXBContext.newInstance(String contextPath) API to create a DynamicJAXBContext.

   DynamicJAXBContext jaxbContext = (DynamicJAXBContext) JAXBContext.newInstance("org.example.mypackage");

Because you do not need to change any application code, you can easily switch between different JAXB implementations.

The JAXBContextFactory can

• Create a JAXBContext from an array of Classes and a Properties object
• Create a JAXBContext from a context path and a ClassLoader
