XSD Client in Spring

Question

I have an XSD document that I need to communicate with an endpoint (client side only) - is there this functionality built into spring? I have been using JAXB, but was wondering if spring has some sort of wrapper. Thanks.

Answer 1

Finally figured it out - its a matter of changing the MessageFactory on the WebServiceTemplate to use POX vs SOAP. Hope this helps someone!
