Hi Werner, > that should work out of the box.
This sounds good. I also thought that it should work. >When you used the XML code generator to > generate the Java classes from your XML schema, it produced (so-called) > descriptor classes as well.

As I said the following code works fine: *************************************************** Unmarshaller u = new Unmarshaller(RootXml.class) Object o = u.unmarshal(reader) *************************************************** But if I instantiate the Unmarshaller without a "root class" argument (using the empty constructor), the error message "The class for the root element 'root' could not be found." arises. My XML-Schema also have a namespace. I don't know whether this is important. But my XML sources have a the same namespace of course. What more information you need to analyze this matter?
