Start with a schema that has a namespace - the orm.xsd for example and a project that does not have EclipseLink on its classpath.  Generate JAXB classes from the schema.  Notice that a class package-info.java is created. Now choose New->JAXB->Schema from JAXB Classes and select that generated package including the package-info.java file. You get the below exception.  Using EclipseLink MOXy does not result in this exception.  Uncheck the package-info.java file and both the JDK and EclipseLink MOXy implementations appear to find the package-info.java and use it in the generation.
