public abstract class JAXBContext extends Object
The JAXBContext class provides the client's entry point to the JAXB API. It provides an abstraction for managing the XML/Java binding information necessary to implement the JAXB binding framework operations: unmarshal, marshal and validate.
A client application normally obtains new instances of this class using one of these two styles for newInstance methods, although there are other specialized forms of the method available:
JAXBContext.newInstance( "com.acme.foo:com.acme.bar" )
The JAXBContext instance is initialized from a list of colon separated Java package names. Each java package contains JAXB mapped classes, schema-derived classes and/or user annotated classes. Additionally, the java package may contain JAXB package annotations that must be processed. (see JLS, Section 7.4.1 "Named Packages").JAXBContext.newInstance( com.acme.foo.Foo.class )
The JAXBContext instance is intialized with class(es) passed as parameter(s) and classes that are statically reachable from these class(es). SeenewInstance(Class...)
for details.
SPEC REQUIREMENT: the provider must supply an implementation class containing the following method signatures:
public static JAXBContext createContext( String contextPath, ClassLoader classLoader, Map<String,Object> properties ) throws JAXBException public static JAXBContext createContext( Class[] classes, Map<String,Object> properties ) throws JAXBException
The following JAXB 1.0 requirement is only required for schema to java interface/implementation binding. It does not apply to JAXB annotated classes. JAXB Providers must generate a jaxb.properties file in each package containing schema derived classes. The property file must contain a property named javax.xml.bind.context.factory whose value is the name of the class that implements the createContext APIs.
The class supplied by the provider does not have to be assignable to javax.xml.bind.JAXBContext, it simply has to provide a class that implements the createContext APIs.
In addition, the provider must call the
DatatypeConverter.setDatatypeConverter
api prior to any client invocations of the marshal and unmarshal methods. This is necessary to configure the datatype converter that will be used during these operations.Unmarshalling
The
Unmarshaller
class provides the client application the ability to convert XML data into a tree of Java content objects. The unmarshal method allows for any global XML element declared in the schema to be unmarshalled as the root of an instance document. Additionally, the unmarshal method allows for an unrecognized root element that has an xsi:type attribute's value that references a type definition declared in the schema to be unmarshalled as the root of an instance document. The JAXBContext object allows the merging of global elements and type definitions across a set of schemas (listed in the contextPath). Since each schema in the schema set can belong to distinct namespaces, the unification of schemas to an unmarshalling context should be namespace independent. This means that a client application is able to unmarshal XML documents that are instances of any of the schemas listed in the contextPath. For example:JAXBContext jc = JAXBContext.newInstance( "com.acme.foo:com.acme.bar" ); Unmarshaller u = jc.createUnmarshaller(); FooObject fooObj = (FooObject)u.unmarshal( new File( "foo.xml" ) ); // ok BarObject barObj = (BarObject)u.unmarshal( new File( "bar.xml" ) ); // ok BazObject bazObj = (BazObject)u.unmarshal( new File( "baz.xml" ) ); // error, "com.acme.baz" not in contextPath
The client application may also generate Java content trees explicitly rather than unmarshalling existing XML data. For all JAXB-annotated value classes, an application can create content using constructors. For schema-derived interface/implementation classes and for the creation of elements that are not bound to a JAXB-annotated class, an application needs to have access and knowledge about each of the schema derived ObjectFactory classes that exist in each of java packages contained in the contextPath. For each schema derived java class, there is a static factory method that produces objects of that type. For example, assume that after compiling a schema, you have a package com.acme.foo that contains a schema derived interface named PurchaseOrder. In order to create objects of that type, the client application would use the factory method like this:
com.acme.foo.PurchaseOrder po = com.acme.foo.ObjectFactory.createPurchaseOrder();
Once the client application has an instance of the the schema derived object, it can use the mutator methods to set content on it.
For more information on the generated ObjectFactory classes, see Section 4.2 Java Package of the specification.
SPEC REQUIREMENT: the provider must generate a class in each package that contains all of the necessary object factory methods for that package named ObjectFactory as well as the static newInstance( javaContentInterface ) method
Marshalling
The
Marshaller
class provides the client application the ability to convert a Java content tree back into XML data. There is no difference between marshalling a content tree that is created manually using the factory methods and marshalling a content tree that is the result an unmarshal operation. Clients can marshal a java content tree back to XML data to a java.io.OutputStream or a java.io.Writer. The marshalling process can alternatively produce SAX2 event streams to a registered ContentHandler or produce a DOM Node object. Client applications have control over the output encoding as well as whether or not to marshal the XML data as a complete document or as a fragment.Here is a simple example that unmarshals an XML document and then marshals it back out:
JAXBContext jc = JAXBContext.newInstance( "com.acme.foo" ); // unmarshal from foo.xml Unmarshaller u = jc.createUnmarshaller(); FooObject fooObj = (FooObject)u.unmarshal( new File( "foo.xml" ) ); // marshal to System.out Marshaller m = jc.createMarshaller(); m.marshal( fooObj, System.out );
Validation
Validation has been changed significantly since JAXB 1.0. The
Validator
class has been deprecated and made optional. This means that you are advised not to use this class and, in fact, it may not even be available depending on your JAXB provider. JAXB 1.0 client applications that rely on Validator will still work properly when deployed with the JAXB 1.0 runtime system. In JAXB 2.0, theUnmarshaller
has included convenince methods that expose the JAXP 1.3javax.xml.validation
framework. Please refer to theUnmarshaller.setSchema(javax.xml.validation.Schema)
API for more information.JAXB Runtime Binding Framework Compatibility
The following JAXB 1.0 restriction only applies to binding schema to interfaces/implementation classes. Since this binding does not require a common runtime system, a JAXB client application must not attempt to mix runtime objects (JAXBContext, Marshaller, etc. ) from different providers. This does not mean that the client application isn't portable, it simply means that a client has to use a runtime system provided by the same provider that was used to compile the schema.
Discovery of JAXB implementation
When one of the newInstance methods is called, a JAXB implementation is discovered by the following steps.
-
For each package/class explicitly passed in to the
newInstance(java.lang.String)
method, in the order they are specified, jaxb.properties file is looked up in its package, by using the associated classloader — this isthe owner class loader
for aClass
argument, and for a package the speifiedClassLoader
.If such a file is discovered, it is
loaded
as a property file, and the value of theJAXB_CONTEXT_FACTORY
key will be assumed to be the provider factory class. This class is then loaded by the associated classloader discussed above.This phase of the look up allows some packages to force the use of a certain JAXB implementation. (For example, perhaps the schema compiler has generated some vendor extension in the code.)
-
If the system property
JAXB_CONTEXT_FACTORY
exists, then its value is assumed to be the provider factory class. This phase of the look up enables per-JVM override of the JAXB implementation. - Look for /META-INF/services/javax.xml.bind.JAXBContext file in the associated classloader. This file follows the standard service descriptor convention, and if such a file exists, its content is assumed to be the provider factory class. This phase of the look up is for automatic discovery. It allows users to just put a JAXB implementation in a classpath and use it without any furhter configuration.
- Finally, if all the steps above fail, then the rest of the look up is unspecified. That said, the recommended behavior is to simply look for some hard-coded platform default JAXB implementation. This phase of the look up is so that JavaSE can have its own JAXB implementation as the last resort.
Once the provider factory class is discovered, its public static JAXBContext createContext(String,ClassLoader,Map) method (see
newInstance(String, ClassLoader, Map)
for the parameter semantics.) or public static JAXBContext createContet(Class[],Map) method (seenewInstance(Class[], Map)
for the parameter semantics) are invoked to create aJAXBContext

newInstance
public static JAXBContext newInstance(String contextPath) throws JAXBException
Obtain a new instance of a JAXBContext class.
This is a convenience method to invoke the
newInstance(String,ClassLoader)
method with the context class loader of the current thread.- Throws:
JAXBException
- if an error was encountered while creating the JAXBContext such as- failure to locate either ObjectFactory.class or jaxb.index in the packages
- an ambiguity among global elements contained in the contextPath
- failure to locate a value for the context factory provider property
- mixing schema derived packages from different providers on the same contextPath
-
newInstance
public static JAXBContext newInstance(String contextPath, ClassLoader classLoader) throws JAXBException
Obtain a new instance of a JAXBContext class.
The client application must supply a context path which is a list of colon (':', \u003A) separated java package names that contain schema-derived classes and/or fully qualified JAXB-annotated classes. Schema-derived code is registered with the JAXBContext by the ObjectFactory.class generated per package. Alternatively than being listed in the context path, programmer annotated JAXB mapped classes can be listed in a jaxb.index resource file, format described below. Note that a java package can contain both schema-derived classes and user annotated JAXB classes. Additionally, the java package may contain JAXB package annotations that must be processed. (see JLS, Section 7.4.1 "Named Packages").
Every package listed on the contextPath must meet one or both of the following conditions otherwise a JAXBException will be thrown:
- it must contain ObjectFactory.class
- it must contain jaxb.index
Format for jaxb.index
The file contains a newline-separated list of class names. Space and tab characters, as well as blank lines, are ignored. The comment character is '#' (0x23); on each line all characters following the first comment character are ignored. The file must be encoded in UTF-8. Classes that are reachable, as defined in
newInstance(Class...)
, from the listed classes are also registered with JAXBContext.Constraints on class name occuring in a jaxb.index file are:
- Must not end with ".class".
- Class names are resolved relative to package containing jaxb.index file. Only classes occuring directly in package containing jaxb.index file are allowed.
- Fully qualified class names are not allowed. A qualified class name,relative to current package, is only allowed to specify a nested or inner class.
To maintain compatibility with JAXB 1.0 schema to java interface/implementation binding, enabled by schema customization <jaxb:globalBindings valueClass="false">, the JAXB provider will ensure that each package on the context path has a jaxb.properties file which contains a value for the javax.xml.bind.context.factory property and that all values resolve to the same provider. This requirement does not apply to JAXB annotated classes.
If there are any global XML element name collisions across the various packages listed on the contextPath, a JAXBException will be thrown.
Mixing generated interface/impl bindings from multiple JAXB Providers in the same context path may result in a JAXBException being thrown.
The steps involved in discovering the JAXB implementation is discussed in the class javadoc.
- Parameters:
contextPath
- list of java package names that contain schema derived class and/or java to schema (JAXB-annotated) mapped classesclassLoader
- This class loader will be used to locate the implementation classes.- Returns:
- a new instance of a JAXBContext
- Throws:
JAXBException
- if an error was encountered while creating the JAXBContext such as- failure to locate either ObjectFactory.class or jaxb.index in the packages
- an ambiguity among global elements contained in the contextPath
- failure to locate a value for the context factory provider property
- mixing schema derived packages from different providers on the same contextPath
-
newInstance
public static JAXBContext newInstance(String contextPath, ClassLoader classLoader, Map<String,?> properties) throws JAXBException
Obtain a new instance of a JAXBContext class.
This is mostly the same as
newInstance(String, ClassLoader)
, but this version allows you to pass in provider-specific properties to configure the instantiation ofJAXBContext
.The interpretation of properties is up to implementations. Implementations should throw JAXBException if it finds properties that it doesn't understand.
- Parameters:
contextPath
- list of java package names that contain schema derived classesclassLoader
- This class loader will be used to locate the implementation classes.properties
- provider-specific properties. Can be null, which means the same thing as passing in an empty map.- Returns:
- a new instance of a JAXBContext
- Throws:
JAXBException
- if an error was encountered while creating the JAXBContext such as- failure to locate either ObjectFactory.class or jaxb.index in the packages
- an ambiguity among global elements contained in the contextPath
- failure to locate a value for the context factory provider property
- mixing schema derived packages from different providers on the same contextPath
- Since:
- JAXB2.0
-
newInstance
public static JAXBContext newInstance(Class... classesToBeBound) throws JAXBException
Obtain a new instance of a JAXBContext class.
The client application must supply a list of classes that the new context object needs to recognize. Not only the new context will recognize all the classes specified, but it will also recognize any classes that are directly/indirectly referenced statically from the specified classes. Subclasses of referenced classes nor @XmlTransient referenced classes are not registered with JAXBContext. For example, in the following Java code, if you do newInstance(Foo.class), the newly created
JAXBContext
will recognize both Foo and Bar, but not Zot or FooBar:class Foo { @XmlTransient FooBar c; Bar b; } class Bar { int x; } class Zot extends Bar { int y; } class FooBar { }
Therefore, a typical client application only needs to specify the top-level classes, but it needs to be careful.Note that for each java package registered with JAXBContext, when the optional package annotations exist, they must be processed. (see JLS, Section 7.4.1 "Named Packages").
The steps involved in discovering the JAXB implementation is discussed in the class javadoc.
