Hello,
>Is Castor driven by proper xml schema (binding configuration)?
Yes. As a matter of fact, there's one article on IBM site that shows how
to
Use castor as serializer/deserializer together with axis.
And you start from a schema..

Meaning? Do you mean how can you generate your business objects from a
schema? There's a tool in castor, called sourcegenerator, which
generates a set of javaobjects from an xml schema
>What is the object-tree created by the deserialization/unmarshalling
>process and is it navigable using JXpath?
Yes.. Castor is effectively a XML2J binding framework. (and not only..)

I'm using Castor and it's working well and Axis already have the
serializer/deserializer. You should realize that working with Castor is
lot less risky than using JAXB because you have the source code of
Castor and Castor project is very active. Castor will also move document
from your WSDL to the generated Java class which I believe JAXB doesn't
do.
The alternative that make sence is to use XMLBean with is open source
and seem to be the most uptodate on XML Schema.

Has anybody tried to integrate JAXB into Axis' serialization framework?
Does anyone know of any discussions/resources that address this?
