Generating XSD schemas from JAXB types in Maven?

I'm trying to basically generate XSD schemas from my model classes annotated in JAXB using a Maven plugin. Here's the relevant code in my POM:

<plugin>
    <groupId>com.sun.tools.jxc.maven2</groupId>
    <artifactId>maven-jaxb-schemagen-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>1.2</version>
    <executions>
        <execution>
            <phase>generate-resources</phase>
            <goals>
                <goal>generate</goal>
            </goals>
        </execution>
    </executions>

    <configuration>
        <project>${project}</project>
        <destdir>${project.build.directory}/schemas</destdir>
        <srcdir>${project.build.sourceDirectory}/com/floodstream/wowza/mastercontrol/model</srcdir>
        <verbose>true</verbose>
    </configuration>

    <dependencies>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>javax.xml.bind</groupId>
            <artifactId>jaxb-api</artifactId>
            <version>2.2</version>
        </dependency>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>com.sun.xml.bind</groupId>
            <artifactId>jaxb-xjc</artifactId>
            <version>2.2</version>
        </dependency>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>com.sun.xml.bind</groupId>
            <artifactId>jaxb-impl</artifactId>
            <version>2.2</version>
        </dependency>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>com.sun.xml.bind</groupId>
            <artifactId>jaxb-xjc</artifactId>
            <version>2.2</version>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>
</plugin>

<!-- other stuff omitted for brevity -->

<pluginRepository>
    <id>maven-repository.dev.java.net</id>
    <name>Java.net Maven 2 Repository</name>
    <url>http://download.java.net/maven/2</url>
</pluginRepository>

I get the following error:

Check for related posts. I think there are two plugins for jaxb, and one of them is much better than the other (understatement). I think the right one has "jaxb2" in the artifact-id. – Helping 31/8, 2011 at 0:59

Here's the win:

<plugin>
    <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
    <artifactId>jaxb2-maven-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>1.3.1</version>
    <executions>
        <execution>
            <goals>
                <goal>schemagen</goal>
            </goals>
            <phase>generate-resources</phase>
            <configuration>
                <includes>
                    <include>com/myproject/model/*.java</include>
                </includes>
                <outputDirectory>${project.build.directory}/schemas</outputDirectory>
            </configuration>
        </execution>
    </executions>
</plugin>

Since the functionality from schemagen is getting replaced with javac what is the approach there? Just adding javac with the corresponding flags to goal? – Lumbye 22/7, 2013 at 16:32

Improving on Naftuli Tzvi Kay's answer, I found it more convenient to use the now-current version 2.2 of the jaxb2-maven-plugin, like in this sample (as the 2.x version requires slightly different configuration):

<plugin>
    <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
    <artifactId>jaxb2-maven-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>2.2</version>
    <executions>
        <execution>
            <goals>
                <goal>schemagen</goal>
            </goals>
            <phase>generate-resources</phase>
            <configuration>
                <sources>
                    <source>src/main/java/com/foo/model/xml</source>
                </sources>
                <outputDirectory>${project.build.directory}/schemas</outputDirectory>
            </configuration>
        </execution>
    </executions>
</plugin>

See the plugin documentation for more details.
