Me.
The problem is that XJC has a bug.
XJC is very restictive, when it comes to customizations. XJC plugins
have to declare namespaces and names of customization elements.
However, theoretically customization elements may have arbitrary
sub-elements, XJC is not supposed to control that. This is indeed so
when customization elements are declared in the schema directly. But
if literaly the same customization elements are declared in bindings
file, XJC complains about unsupported binding namespaces. It's clearly
an inconsistency and I am pretty sure it's just a bug with processing
of binding files.
However, until the bug is fixed (and, ahm, reported first :)), there's
a workaround, You can use annox:annotate/_at_annox:class attribute to
specify the annotation class. I'm attaching and example. This is far
not that elegant as with namespace/package mappings, but this works.
Bye.
