Generating Java Classes from an XML Schema
Use the JAXB Compiler to generate Java classes from an XML schema. The generated classes will contain JAXB annotations that represent the XML binding metadata.
Running the JAXB Compiler
Use the .sh or .cmd file to run the JAXB compiler:
<ECLIPSELINK_HOME>/eclipselink/bin/jaxb-compiler.sh <source-file.xsd> [-options]
or
<ECLIPSELINK_HOME>\eclipselink\bin\jaxb-compiler.cmd <source-file.xsd> [-options]
This table describes the available JAXB Compiler options:
-d <directory> | Specifies the output directory for the generated files. |
-p <package> | Specifies the target package |
-classpath <arg> | Specifies where to find user class files |
-verbose | Enables the compiler output |
-quiet | Disables the compiler output |
-version | Displays the compiler version information |
For example:
jaxb-compiler.sh -d jaxb-compiler-output config/Customer.xsd
To display a complete list of compiler options, use:
jaxb-compiler.sh -help
