This is not a limitation of XMLBeans. You're free to take a look at the =
source code for XMLBeans to see that there's no "secret" limitations =
inside XMLBeans. You're just seeing the fact that custom marshallers =
have not been done for other marshalling frameworks yet. Why not? There =
is no insidious reason. It's because XMLBeans is new. Before being =
contributed to Apache, it was developed at BEA, so it happens to be used =
already in some BEA products.
It is a definite goal of the XMLBeans dev team to be integrated into =
AXIS as well as the other important marshalling frameworks (including =
any you can get from BEA). We believe the technology fills an important =
need, and should be used in a widespread way. I believe this can be =
done cleanly without breaking compatibility with existing XMLBeans =
usage.
