JAXB sometimes can't apply a customisation in multiple compilation scenario.

[Tomas-Kraus]

We have a large project where the data layer is almost totally based on JAXB. We have multiple levels of schemas, and use xs:import and extensions heavily. Occasionally we have a problem where JAXB will refuse to run, saying that it cannot honour a customisation, usually from a base schema when compiling a sub-schema.

I finally managed to isolate a test case, see the files in the attached tar. The problem is the javaType customisation on core:ID (in core.xsd).

To reproduce:

xjc.sh core.xsd -d output -p generated.core.com.mycorp.model.common.datatypes

This compiles just the base schema, and works correctly.

xjc.sh core.xsd card.xsd -extension -b core.episode -d output -p generated.card.com.mycorp.model.common.datatypes

This demonstrates the base file being imported with the corresponding episode. This also works.

xjc.sh core.xsd iso8583.xsd testcase.xsd -extension -b core.episode -b iso8583.episode -d output -p generated.testcase.com.mycorp.model.common.datatypes

This case should be identical to the above, but breaks with the error below:

[ERROR] compiler was unable to honor this javaType customization. It is attached to a wrong place, or its inconsistent with other bindings. line 66 of file:/Users/colin/dev/platform/common/testcase/core.xsd

[ERROR] (the above customization is attached to the following location in the schema) line 61 of file:/Users/colin/dev/platform/common/testcase/core.xsd

This is a very urgent issue for us, any workaround until a fix is available would be greatly appreciated.

The issue is really old. And because nobody else reporting it I assumed that it's fixed. I'll take a look at it.

The expected behavior when using the episode mechanism would be that customizations are either ignored by the xjc run importing the episode, or that an XJC plugin gets the chance to process the customization found in the XSD imported via the episode. Both doesn't seem to work.
