Here's a non-annotation Joda solution. We have generated objects from xsd's and want them to use Joda instead of XmlGregorianCalendar.
Note: When I tried to pass a proper XmlGregorianCalendar object to the unmarshal methods in the classes, I got JaxB compiler errors that said it required type String, not XmlGregorianCalendar. Tested with String, and it appears to be working fine. Quick and dirty error handling here, so fix that up as you please.
Hope this helps.
