I had a chat with Alessio on IRC about this. JBoss has a project called JAXBIntroductions that provides controlling the JAXB context via an XML properties file. See: http://www.jboss.org/community/wiki/JAXBIntroductions The main issue is it doesn't currently support XmlTransient and several other annotations. There is a jira for it: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBWS-2751 Anyway, that's probably the place to start looking for solutions on how to do this. -- Daniel Kulp [email protected] http://www.dankulp.com/blog
