Automatically Detected JAXB Transformations

[erhard]

In https://docs.jboss.org/author/display/SWITCHYARD/Transformation there is mentioned that there is no need to register transformations when JAXB-types are used. I tried this, but couldn't get it working (in Unit-Test). It works, when I register the transformation in switchyard.xml. Is there a quickstart demonstrating this? The jaxb-quickstart also registers the transformation and the video linked from here seems to be gone.

I packaged the JAXB-generated classes in a separate JAR? Could this be a probem?

Registered transformation:

{code}
    <transforms xmlns:xform="urn:switchyard-config:transform:1.0">
        <xform:transform.jaxb 
            from="java:at.bergfex.order._1.Order" 
            to="{http://bergfex.at/order/1.0}order" 
            contextPath="at.bergfex.order._1"/>
        <xform:transform.jaxb 
            from="{http://bergfex.at/order/1.0}order" 
            to="java:at.bergfex.order._1.Order" 
            contextPath="at.bergfex.order._1"/>
    </transforms>
{code}

Service:

{code}
import org.switchyard.component.bean.Service;
import at.bergfex.order._1.Order;
@Service(Ordering.class)
public class OrderingBean implements at.objectbay.tests.Ordering {
    @Override
    public int process(Order order) {
     ...
    }
}
{code}

This is in flux at the moment.  I made some changes as part of SWITCHYARD-828 that improve JAXB handling overall (e.g. ObjectFactory is not required), but had a side effect of disabling runtime auto-registration.  It's better to generate the config vs. registering these at runtime, so I created SWITCHYARD-831 as a separate issue to handle that.
