Since you already have the classes, you don't need to use the source
generator. All you need is the mapping file. Since you generated your
mapping file with a tool, you may need to tweak it manually to provide
the proper XML output.
As you mentioned, it might be a good idea to have an XSD or DTD for
validation purposes, but it's not required.

Here's the situation:
Hibernate is used as ORM; POJOs and hbm.xml mapping files already exist.
You would need Unmarshal capability at the server end to convert POJO xml
into POJO java object. Assume Castor is used at both client and
server end.
My understanding is that you would only need Mapping file to perform
marsha/unmarshal in the above situation.
Does one need Castor source code generator here?
I used POJOs(generated from hbm.xml) as input to generate castor
mapping.xml using O2xmapper. Is there a tool that can generate XML
payload
from this mapping.xml ?(i.e The Client end need to Marshal POJO into
this xml payload am talking about).
Is it also good to have XSD generated from this mapping file for
validation purpose? (This XSD is not used for src code generation).
