I am pretty new to JAXB, so this might be a stupid question. But I couldn't
find any useful information so far. Probably because I don't know what to
look for exactly.
As long as I use static types in my objects to marshal/unmarshal
everything's fine. Here and there I use or have to use an XmlJavaTypeAdapter
- no problem.
But now I need to handle objects/classes that have a field of type 'Object'.
The type of the field is only known at runtime.
Any help (hints, sample code, ...) is greatly appreciated.

Example:
@XmlRootElement
public class Test {
public Object field;
}
public class Other {
public String name;
}
public class YetAnother {
public Long value;
}
jaxbContext = JAXBContext.newInstance(
Test.class,
Other.class
// ...
);
Marshaller marshaller = jaxbContext.createMarshaller();
Test test = new Test();
Other other = new Other();
other.name = "Hello world";
test.field = other;
Document document = marshaller.marshal(test);
//...
Unmarshaller unmarshaller = jaxbContext.createUnmarshaller();
unmarshal(document);
//...
YetAnother another = new YetAnother();
another.value = 1L;
document = marshaller.marshal(test);
unmarshal(document);
