  ${JAVA_JAXB_SDK_HOME}/build> ant build

NOTE. It is observed that Java JAXB SDK building throws the following exception when running with some of the JDK versions.  

[wsimport] Exception in thread "main" java.util.ServiceConfigurationError:
sun.tools.xjc.Plugin: Provider com.sun.tools.internal.xjc.addon.locator.Sour
cationAddOn could not be instantiated: java.lang.ClassCastException

   The known buggy JDK versions are JDK 1.6.0_04 b07 and JDK 1.6.0_05-ea as reported on Sun Web Services Interoperability Technologies site. The workaround for this issue is just simply update your JDK to the latest JDK 1.6 version or higher.
