I endorsed jaxb-api (version 2.2.1), and it did allow me to put XmlElement on an input, but it wouldn't allow the XmlSchemaType element--do you know if that is in a later patch version of 2.2?

There are three ways to handle this: 1) Endorse the JAXB 2.2 API jar via one of the JDK endorsement mechanisms. Then the XmlElement and XmlSchemaType annotations can be used on the parameter. 2) Create the wrapper type beans (you can use java2ws -warpperBeans as a starting point) and add the @RequestWrapper/@ResponseWrapper annotations to the method to point at them. You can finely control the appearance of the wrapper schema via annotations in the beans. 3) You CAN configure extra subclasses of AbstractServiceConfiguration into the factories where you override some of the methods to set various minOccurs/maxOccurs/etc.. type things. VERY fine level of control, but very complex to do. -- Daniel Kulp [email protected] http://dankulp.com/blog Talend - http://www.talend.com NOTICE: This email message is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain confidential and privileged information.
