Sergey,
many thanks. It worked. The code follows.
The only thing I'd like to fix is that the namespace prefixes are ns2 ns3 etc.
and I would like to manually set them.
public class MyJAXBElementProvider extends JAXBElementProvider {
public String contextPath;
@Override
protected JAXBContext getJAXBContext(Class<?> type, Type genericType)
throws JAXBException {
JAXBContext jaxbContext = super.getJAXBContext(type, genericType);
jaxbContext = JAXBContext.newInstance(contextPath);
return jaxbContext;
}
/**
* List of package names this will support for marshalling
* E.g.
com.axiell.arena.domain.binding:org.openarchives.oai._2:org.openarchives.oai._2_0.oai_dc:org.purl.dc.elements._1
* @param contextPath
*/
public void setContextPath(String contextPath) {
this.contextPath = contextPath;
}
}
Replace the normal jaxbProvider entry in Spring config with this.
<bean id="jaxbProvider"
class="com.axiell.arena.archive.oai.server.invocation.MyJAXBElementProvider" >
<property name="contextPath"
value="com.axiell.arena.domain.binding:org.openarchives.oai._2:org.openarchives.oai._2_0.oai_dc:org.purl.dc.elements._1"/>
</bean>

Hi Gareth
It all makes sense (I think).
Unfortunately it is not currently possible to explicitly configure
JAXBElementProvider for it to be aware of all the additional
packages/classes which may need to be dealt with when unmarshalling a given
xml instance. But it could be a good enhancement indeed.
There're few options/workarounds at the moment :
1. Write a custom message body reader extending CXF JAXBElementProvider and
overriding its createJaxbContext method by returning a statically created
JAXBContext aware of OAI_DC_PACKAGE, provided that a class for which a
context needs to be created is in the right package.
2. Try CXF JAXBDataBinding, by embedding the following fragment in the
jaxrs:server:
<jaxrs:dataBinding>
<bean class="org.apache.cxf.jaxb.JAXBDataBinding">
<property name="namespaceMap">
<map>
<entry>
<key><value>http://cxf.apache.org/anonymous_complex_type/</value></key>
<value>BeepBeep</value>
</entry>
</map>
</property>
</bean>
</jaxrs:dataBinding>
The namespaceMap property is just an example on how CXF JAXBDataBinding can
be configured but I believe one can specify additional packages/classes for
which JAXBContexts will be precreated.
Perhaps, it is also possible to use JAXBContext explicitly in your code.
Hope it helps, Sergey
