Major Description
If CXF is on the classpath when you invoke the JXC code generator, it tries to load the org.apache.cxf.xjc.ts.ToStringPlugin as a JAXB plugin, but due to some problems with the 1.6 JVM, it fails:
bash-2.05b$ gunzip -c apache-cxf-2.1.2.tar.gz | tar xf -
bash-2.05b$ cd apache-cxf-2.1.2/lib
bash-2.05b$ java -classpath $(pwd)/cxf-manifest.jar com.sun.tools.xjc.XJCFacade
grammar is not specified
Usage: xjc [-options ...] <schema file/URL/dir/jar> ... [-b <bindinfo>] ...
If dir is specified, all schema files in it will be compiled.
If jar is specified, /META-INF/sun-jaxb.episode binding file will be compiled.
Options:
-nv : do not perform strict validation of the input schema(s)
-extension : allow vendor extensions - do not strictly follow the
Compatibility Rules and App E.2 from the JAXB Spec
-b <file/dir> : specify external bindings files (each <file> must have its own -b)
If a directory is given, */.xjb is searched
-d <dir> : generated files will go into this directory
-p <pkg> : specifies the target package
-httpproxy <proxy> : set HTTP/HTTPS proxy. Format is [user[:password]@]proxyHost:proxyPort
-httpproxyfile <f> : Works like -httpproxy but takes the argument in a file to protect password
-classpath <arg> : specify where to find user class files
-catalog <file> : specify catalog files to resolve external entity references
support TR9401, XCatalog, and OASIS XML Catalog format.
-readOnly : generated files will be in read-only mode
-npa : suppress generation of package level annotations (**/package-info.java)
-no-header : suppress generation of a file header with timestamp
-target 2.0 : behave like XJC 2.0 and generate code that doesnt use any 2.1 features.
-xmlschema : treat input as W3C XML Schema (default)
-relaxng : treat input as RELAX NG (experimental,unsupported)
-relaxng-compact : treat input as RELAX NG compact syntax (experimental,unsupported)
-dtd : treat input as XML DTD (experimental,unsupported)
-wsdl : treat input as WSDL and compile schemas inside it (experimental,unsupported)
-verbose : be extra verbose
-quiet : suppress compiler output
-help : display this help message
-version : display version information

The only solution to this problem that I have been able to find is to put all XJC plugins in a subpackage of com.sun.tools.xjc.addon. No endorsed dirs hackery seems to work.
