1) Can't you compile the 4 .xsd files independently, i.e., in 4 xjc runs?
I don't think you can unify all 4 halign entries into a single class -
according to your xjb you put them into different packages. If some or all
of the .xsd files have their elements in the same target namespace you would
get the same class, generated 4 times, but that doesn't matter.
2) You *are *in control of the .xsd files as far as their technical
structure is concerned. If they are poorly structured, you can
(XSLT-)transform them into another one, where the halign occurs in a (new)
common.xsd and the others just include common.xsd. Repeated includes don't
hurt.
