XJC Binding Compiler

<< JAXB Compiler Options | JAXB Schema Generator Option >>

XJC Binding Compiler

-extension

By default, the XJC binding compiler strictly enforces the rules outlined
in the Compatibility chapter of the JAXB Specification. In the default
(strict) mode, you are also limited to using only the binding
customizations defined in the specification. By using the -extension
switch, you will be allowed to use the JAXB Vendor Extensions.

-b

file

Specify one or more external binding files to process. (Each binding file
must have its own -b switch.) The syntax of the external binding files is
extremely flexible. You may have a single binding file that contains
customizations for multiple schemas or you can break the
customizations into multiple bindings files. In addition, the ordering of
the schema files and binding files on the command line does not matter.

-d

dir

By default, xjc will generate Java content classes in the current directory.
Use this option to specify an alternate output directory. The directory
must already exist; xjc will not create it for you.

-p

package

Specify an alternate output directory. By default, the XJC binding
compiler will generate the Java content classes in the current directory.
The output directory must already exist; the XJC binding compiler will
not create it for you.

-proxy

proxy

Specify the HTTP/HTTPS proxy. The format is
[

user[:password]@]proxyHost[:proxyPort]. The old -host and -port

options are still supported by the Reference Implementation for
backwards compatibility, but they have been deprecated.

-classpath

arg

Specify where to find client application class files used by the
<jxb:javaType>

and <xjc:superClass> customizations.

-catalog

file

Specify catalog files to resolve external entity references. Supports
TR9401, XCatalog, and OASIS XML Catalog format. For more
information, see the XML Entity and URI Resolvers document or
examine the catalog-resolver sample application.

-readOnly

Force the XJC binding compiler to mark the generated Java sources
read-only. By default, the XJC binding compiler does not write-protect
the Java source files it generates.

-npa

Suppress the generation of package level annotations into
**/package-info.java

. Using this switch causes the generated code to

internalize those annotations into the other generated classes.

-xmlschema

Treat input schemas as W3C XML Schema (default). If you do not
specify this switch, your input schemas will be treated as W3C XML
Schema.

-quiet

Suppress compiler output, such as progress information and warnings.
