maven-jaxb2-plugin VS jaxb2-maven-plugin for multiple schemas

Question

I have multiple xsd schemas that I want to unmarshall into different packages under the same folder target/generated-sources/xjc. I tried both

Answer 1

General advice: specify your packages in bindings.xjb rather than in different executions with individual generatePackages.

generatePackage does not really work well with multiple schemas.

And please file a bug in

https://java.net/jira/browse/MAVEN_JAXB2_PLUGIN

citing the problem with the multiple schemas and Eclipse. I'll take a look into it.
