Question

I need to serialize an XML java object to a XML file using the JAXB Marshaller (JAXB version 2.2). Now in the xml object, I have a tag which contains String value such that:

"<"tagA>
**"<"YYYYY>done"<"/YYYYY>**
"<"/tagA>

Now as you can see that this string value again contains tags.
I want this to be written in the same way in the xml file.

But JAXB Marshaller converts these values such as:

"&"lt;YYYYY"&"gt;"&"#xD;done …& so on

I am not able to treat these escape characters separately using JAXB 2.2
Is it possible anyways?

Any help in this regard will be great..

Thanks in advance,

Done it by setting the following property for the JAXB Marshaller:

marshaller.setProperty("jaxb.encoding", "Unicode");
