17.5.1Jaxb2Marshaller

TheJaxb2Marshallerclass implements both the SpringMarshallerandUnmarshallerinterface. It requires a context path to operate, which you can set using thecontextPathproperty. The context path is a list of colon (:) separated Java package names that contain schema derived classes. It also offers aclassesToBeBoundproperty, which allows you to set an array of classes to be supported by the marshaller. Schema validation is performed by specifying one or more schema resource to the bean, like so:

<beans>
	<bean id="jaxb2Marshaller" class="org.springframework.oxm.jaxb.Jaxb2Marshaller">
		<property name="classesToBeBound">
			<list>
				<value>org.springframework.oxm.jaxb.Flight</value>
				<value>org.springframework.oxm.jaxb.Flights</value>
			</list>
		</property>
		<property name="schema" value="classpath:org/springframework/oxm/schema.xsd"/>
	</bean>

	...

</beans>

XML Schema-based Configuration

Thejaxb2-marshallertag configures aorg.springframework.oxm.jaxb.Jaxb2Marshaller. Here is an example:

<oxm:jaxb2-marshaller id="marshaller" contextPath="org.springframework.ws.samples.airline.schema"/>

Alternatively, the list of classes to bind can be provided to the marshaller via theclass-to-be-boundchild tag:

<oxm:jaxb2-marshaller id="marshaller">
	<oxm:class-to-be-bound name="org.springframework.ws.samples.airline.schema.Airport"/>
	<oxm:class-to-be-bound name="org.springframework.ws.samples.airline.schema.Flight"/>
	...
</oxm:jaxb2-marshaller>

Available attributes are:

Attribute	Description	Required
id	the id of the marshaller	no
contextPath	the JAXB Context path	no
