Summary: Provide XmlAdapter alternatives to org.apache.cxf.xjc.runtime.DataTypeAdapter Key: CXF-6924 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-6924 Project: CXF Issue Type: Improvement Components: JAXB Databinding Reporter: David J. M. Karlsen It would be nice to have XmlAdapter versions of the DataTypeAdapter https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/javax/xml/bind/annotation/adapters/XmlAdapter.html The reason for this is that when referencing static methods (e.g. using DataTypeAdapter directly) in binding files this generates adapters (and typically into the package: org/w3/_2001/xmlschema/ named Adapter1, Adapter2 etc which is a ticking bomb when having several different generations with jaxb in an application. Using XmlAdapters will simply refer to the implementing class, thus avoiding generation of code in the 1st place, and secondly avoid overlapping classnames when generating in different modules. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
