EclipseLink MOXy

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.


Instantiating a DynamicJAXBContext

The following methods on DynamicJAXBContextFactory can be used to create DynamicJAXBContexts:

public static JAXBContext newInstance(String contextPath) throws JAXBException
 
public static JAXBContext newInstance(String contextPath, ClassLoader classLoader) throws JAXBException
 
public static JAXBContext newInstance(String contextPath, ClassLoader classLoader, Map<String,?> properties) throws JAXBException
  • contextPath - Location of jaxb.properties file.
  • classLoader - The application's current class loader, which will be used to first lookup classes to see if they exist before new DynamicTypes are generated.
  • properties - A map of properties to use when creating a new DynamicJAXBContext. This map must contain one of the following two keys:
    • JAXBContext.XML_SCHEMA_KEY, which can have several possible values:
      • One of the following, pointing to your XML Schema file:
        • java.io.InputStream
        • org.w3c.dom.Node
        • javax.xml.transform.Source
    • JAXBContext.ECLIPSELINK_OXM_XML_KEY, which can have several possible values:
      • One of the following, pointing to your OXM file:
        • java.io.File
        • java.io.InputStream
        • java.io.Reader
        • java.net.URL
        • javax.xml.stream.XMLEventReader
        • javax.xml.stream.XMLStreamReader
        • javax.xml.transform.Source
        • org.w3c.dom.Node
        • org.xml.sax.InputSource
      • A List of objects from the set above.
      • A Map<String, Object>, where String is a package name, and Object is the pointer to the OXM file, from the set of possibilities above. If using this option, a package-name element is not required in the xml-bindings element of your OXM file.
