This is the best course of action evidently, when it can be taken that is.

Had SUN's own jaxb task not been 'dumb', I wouldn't have had to add 'smarts'
around it, wrapping it as a black box, trying to deal with its effects.
Definitely not ideal... --DD

ahh, Axis's Wsdl2java has the same problem; you need to know too much about
what is going on before you can do dependencies. In the axis case I'm
debating integrating the dependency checking *into* the implementation code,
rather than just a task wrapper;
