Answer 1

i just changed my goal to xjc and mvn jaxb2:xjc it worked i was able to get the jxb classes generated

Answer 2

This has worked for me at some point in time; you can work from there:

<plugin>
    <groupId>com.sun.tools.xjc.maven2</groupId>
    <artifactId>maven-jaxb-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>1.1</version>
    <executions>
        <execution>
            <goals>
                <goal>generate</goal>
            </goals>
        </execution>
    </executions>
    <configuration>
        <removeOldOutput>false</removeOldOutput>
        <schemaDirectory>src/main/resources/xsd</schemaDirectory>
        <includeBindings>
            <includeBinding>*.xjb</includeBinding>
        </includeBindings>
    </configuration>
</plugin>

The plugin is bound to the generate-sources phase.

Cheers,
