If CXF generated the code for that schema, there should also be an @XmlSeeAlso annotation on the SEI that points to the OjbectFactory for that schema. That SHOULD make it more or less just work. Can you check to see if the XmlSeeAlso is there?
If it IS a DOM, you can always do something along the lines of: JAXBContext.newContext(SubjectsDS.class).createUnmarshaller().unmarshall(dom, SubjectsDS.class); Dan On Wednesday 13 October 2010 4:02:56 pm Jeffrey Rodgers wrote: > Benson, > > Thanks for the help and back/forth- > > I'm pretty sure CXF does know the schema though, no?
