Re: Helper for copying values between database and response object
Well, I guess the "normal" way to accomplish this is to make the hibernate and
jaxb objects to be one in the same. Basically, don't generate them from the
xsd. Add the JAXB annotations (use the generated objects as examples) to all
the hibernate objects so you can just return them directly. Not sure how
well your hibernate objects map to the jaxb/xsd model. If they are 1:1, that
might work well.

This might work, only remember that versioning is a problem as the moment
that your domain class chages that will get exposed to the world and
ultimately can break many clients..
What I did in this case was making WS layer wrapper classes which provide a
JAXB compliant facade while shuttling data in and out of the domain object,
which seem to work well and I can version my public exposure.
