Answer 1

if you are running XJC under java6, consider this page: http://download.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/tools/share/xjc.html

Actually, xjc has been embedeed in jdk6 so you have to use 'xjc command' present in your JAVA_HOME/bin dir.

Answer 2

I would guess that you're running XJC under Java6, and have the jaxb-api.jar on your classpath. The classes from the Java6 runtime are clashing with the classes in jaxb-api.jar.

Remove the JAR from the classpath, that should fix it (if that's that's what the problem is).
