Is xjc utility (JAXB) part of Java 1.6 installation?

[ram shyam]

Hi all,

I went through the JAXB APIs for unmarshalling the xml document to JAVA objects and I found an utility called xjc.bat available in 1.6 version. As per the followiing link, I read that this utility is available in the JAVA 1.6 installation bin folder. But, I dont find the bat file in my 1.6 installation path.

Could you please let me know whether it is available in 1.6 installation or if not, please let me know how to get access to this utility?

Thanks in advance!!

Hi,

I have jre1.6.0_06 installed and I could not find the xjc file in this installation. Please let me know the exact version of 1.6 that you have.

Thanks in advance!!

Let's be clear about what "Java installation" means. I have an xjc.exe in my JDK 6 installation but not in any of my JRE 6 installations.

Yes, I find now under the jdk install folder.

Now, I wonder whether this tool is available only in JAVA 1.6. If yes, how can the JAVA source files be generated from the .xsd file (the purpose of the xjc utitly) in versions prior to 1.6
Please clarify.

Thanks in advance!!
