Jaxb

To add a XJC task to a Netbeans build.xml you need to add a -pre-compile target to your build.xml. If it’s a netbeans module build.xml then you need to make compile depend on -pre-compile and projectized-common.compile (see example below). For regular Java Applications just define the -pre-compile target as the standard build.xml will call -pre-compile before compile. Then it’s just a matter of defining the <taskdef> with the proper classpath to the jaxb’s jars. ...

Are you getting a ClassCastException in a Netbeans Platform Application, when you are you sure that the class can be casted? Then check http://wiki.netbeans.org/PlainView.jsp?page=DevFaqModuleCCE. This is most likely the result of the the classes being loaded by different classloaders. So JAXBContextImpl cannot be cast to JAXBContext because that JAXBContext is from Classloader “A” and JAXBContextImpl can only be cast to JAXBContext from Classloader “B”.
