I've never used JAXB, but I found http://camel.apache.org/jaxb.html which says that JAXB is part of Java 6. In order to remain Java 5 compliant, we have to add an optional JAXB dependency. Maybe Apache WS, CXF or Geronimo offer an AL 2.0 complient implementation or you could at least find out how they provide JAXB support. -- Reinhard Pötz Managing Director, {Indoqa} GmbH http://www.indoqa.com/en/people/reinhard.poetz/ Member of the Apache Software Foundation Apache Cocoon Committer, PMC member reinh...@apache.org ________________________________________________________________________
