JAXB External Customizations

Question

Hello all,
I've been trying to build a JAXB external customizations file that covers several schemas simultaneously. The JWS 2.0 tutorial mentions the following regarding an external customizations file ...
You can have a single binding file that contains customizations for multiple schemas,
or you can break the customizations into multiple bindings files; for example:
xjc schema1.xsd schema2.xsd schema3.xsd -b bindings123.xjb
xjc schema1.xsd schema2.xsd schema3.xsd -b bindings1.xjb -b
bindings2.xjb -b bindings3.xjb
Note that the ordering of schema files and binding files on the command line
does not matter, although each binding customization file must be preceded by
its own -b switch on the command line.
The JAXB documentation says that the external file format is as follows:
<jxb:bindings schemaLocation = "xs:anyURI">
<jxb:bindings node = "xs:string">*
<binding declaration>
<jxb:bindings>
</jxb:bindings>
where schemaLocation is of the form schemaLocation="some-schema.xsd"
My question is, how do I reference multiple schemas inside the same customizations file? Everything I've tried to date has failed except creating separate customizations files for each schema. Thanks In Advance.

Hi.
I have already read it. I don't know how to define wsdlLocation (main wsdl or another wsdl?) inside example jaxb bindings. I have tried something like
<jxb:bindings version="1.0" xmlns:jxb="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/jaxb" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
  <jxb:bindings wsdlLocation="path.to.my.main.wsdl" node="//xs:complexType[@name='objectFactory']">
      <jxb:class name="MyObjectFactory" />
   </jxb:bindings>
</jxb:bindings> and I'm getting error
[ERROR] XPath evaluation of "//xs:complexType[@name='objectFactory']" results in
empty target node
  line 2 of file:myBinding.xjb
