Thanks for the input Radek ...
I have one more question if you can help....
for the classes that are generated with JAXB , I am modifing those classes
and making them implement java.io.Seriazable interface . This seems to be
working over RMI and in my preliminary tests I am getting the JAXB objects
Serialised .
Do you think this should be safe ...
Your input would be greatly appreciated.
