By *re*-moving, I was making a joking reference to the **removal** of
namespace attributes. Basically, see my previous email for the example. I
have an element defined as xsd:any. The sub-elements contain namespace
attributes. Anything in the sub-elements that is xmlns gets stripped out.
I tried what you suggested, passing a SAXSource to the unmarshaller, and got
the following error (even after setting the namespace-prefixes property to
true.
DefaultValidationEventHandler: [ERROR]: unexpected attribute "xmlns"
So in short, that test failed.
Thanks,
Matt

OK, I think I'm not aware of any case where JAXB causes this problem.
Can you elaborate on it?

Unfortunately, it seems like a fix requires some RI code change.
One possibility is to:
1. create an XMLReader by yourself
2. configure it with "
http://xml.org/sax/features//namespace-prefixes"
SAX property to true,
3. use SAXSource to pass it to the unmarshaller
If you could test this quickly and tell us if it works, that's great.
