My experience with binding tools (JAXB, PyXB, generateDS) has been
less than useful.
The code they create is almost impossible to trouble shoot and they do
not support advanced XML Schema concepts.

But Andrew, maybe I include myself in that category of not being aware
of the APIs that are available. Could you exand on that with a couple
of examples?

Thanks,
