It's kind of required per-spec. Thus, we don't really have a way to
turn it off.
That said, in many cases, the ObjectFactory classes are necessary for
the JAXB runtime to actually work correctly. If you have types by
extension (subclasses in java code), they may not get picked up into
the context (unless you use some extra configuration), sometimes
certain enums don't work, etc...
Also, what's even more important: With JAXB 2.1, if you generate more
than one schema into the same package, you are definitely going to
have problems. The default namespace and whether elements are
qualified or not are stored in the package-info.java class. Thus,
if you have multiple schemas getting generated in there, which even is
generated "last" will control the namespace and element qualifications
for everything. Thus, you would/could definitely end up with invalid
XML being generated. I had someone run into this last week with
using the -p flag on wsdl2java. I need to add some checks to that
flag to make sure it will work. If there are multiple namespaces, it
really won't.

I did figure out I could create an empty ObjectFactory

if the generation of this tag could be turned off, or
what it is used for and why is it needed.

Subject: turning off @XmlSeeAlso in wsdl2java in CXF 2.1
With CXF 2.1 wsdl2java the generated code now adds @XmlSeeAlso.
Is there a way to turn this off?
This only case seems to be "@XmlSeeAlso({ObjectFactory.class})".
I don't want to use ObjectFactory and have been choosing to
delete it but without it I can't compile because of this tag.
(ObjectFactory seems to be totally unneccessary to me,
and since it has one per service and I choose to have many
services generate into the same package this is a problem
unless I restructure everything about my build. I was hoping
to just do a simple migration from 2.0.5).
Thanks,
Dan
