Hello Kyle, I faced a close issue before when I had to generate XML from JAXB- generated beans. If JAXB-generated beans can be used on GWT client side and converted in Javascript without concern, not are the JAXB (un)marshallers for those beans. Unfortunately, there is not, as far as I know, a possible straight translation of these (un)marshallers into Javascript. GWT does not enable reflection; some frameworks propose to work around it but I hardly think they can help to implement an efficient JAXB translation.
Why not make the server do the job and push/pull data through RPC calls ? Alexandre. On 3 sep, 20:21, Kyle Anderson <[email protected]> wrote: > I have an XML Schema defined in XSD format.
