[<sco...@jb...>]

Without javadoc annotations (which are scheduled for java6), I don't see how this can be done in general as we have no requirement for source code creation. I don't see that the current jaxb2.0 spec (Early Draft 2
Tuesday, March 15, 2005) has any annotation for this purpose either. Perhaps that is something that could be suggested via an email to spe...@js...

I think, Dimitris meant to bind comments from XML content to, e.g., Java fields, not to Java comments.

Yes, just a simple mapping of xml comments to fields. If this could be optionally mapped to annotations, thats fine.

I guess I don't understand the difference between mapping to a java field and a java comment. Are you saying there should be treatment of comments as text to map onto an object the same as a text element?

The problem is how is there a meaningful indexing of the comments to the java objects?

Yes.

I don't know any rule for that. But there are use-cases, e.g. if there is no element 'description' the text could appear in comments instead and be bound to a field 'description' in a class.

I was thinking of a simple binding that would let you get/set the comments before the beggining of an element (and after the end of the previous element).


  |    ...
  |    </prev-element>
  | 
  |    <!-- comment1 -->
  |    <!-- comment2 -->
  |    <element1>
  |       ...
  |    </element1>
  | 
  | 


  | public class PojoForElement1
  | {
  |    String[] getComments()
  |    void setComments(String[])
  |    ...
  | }
  |
