How to use MOXy provider with Glassfish server [message #552301] Wed, 11 August 2010 11:54 Go to next message

Hi, I would like to use EclipseLink MOXy JAXB provider in my EJB application deployed on the Glassfish server. I downloaded org.eclipse.persistence.moxy.jar into glassfish's modules folder and placed jaxb.properties file with content: javax.xml.bind.context.factory=org.eclipse.persistence.jaxb. JAXBContextFactory into my entities/xmltypes folder. When I deploy my app into Glassfish there is following error in server.log:
Quote:
javax.xml.ws.WebServiceException: Unable to create JAXBContext ... Property "id" has an XmlID annotation but its type is not String.
Because MOXy should support non-String types annotated with @XmlID I presume MOXy was not used by Glassfish. Does anybody know how properly configure Glassfish to work with MOXy? Thank you and sorry my English.

Your setup appears to be correct.

The exception you gave is a JAX-WS exception. GlassFish contains the Metro JAX-WS implementation, unforunately that JAX-WS implementation does not allow alternate JAXB implementations to be plugged in.

To confirm MOXy is configured correctly you could try instantiating a JAXBContext in something like a servlet and outputing the impl class.

Bad news, because for example EclipseLink's AttributeGroup is very nice feature which unfortunately doesn't work with Metro JAXB. Returning a detached entity from JAX-WS service cause exception if the entity contains unfetched attributes. MOXy would solve this problem if I understand well. It is pity I cannot use it.

Thanks a lot for answer.
