Hi Joseph,

XMLBeans is not really designed for mapping. You may want to look at JiBX as an alternative: http://www.jibx.org JiBX is faster than Castor, and offers more-flexible mapping.

*Subject:* Schema to existing java type

Hi,

I am quite new to XMLBeans. With Castor, I was able to map schemas to existing java types via mapping file.

I am trying to achieve the same thing with XMLBeans. So far, I have been able to config the generated package names and class names via the .xsdconfig file. But what I really want to do is to transparently map the schema to my existing java types( I cannot modify these java types). Currently, I generated XMLBean classes and then mapped these classes to my existing java classes. I don’t really like this approach because it increases code maintainability and may introduce bugs. I read one of the BEA articles suggesting that I need to use Xquery to handle the mapping. Are there other ways to do this? Could someone point me to the right direction?

Thanks.
