xml - Java 8 default methods, JAXB, and JavaFX Property frustrations -

there way use jaxb annotations on default methods inherited java 8 interfaces?

i created sample maven project @ https://github.com/ruckc/jaxb-java8-javafx highlighting shims required do.

in dealing javafx properties, i've found can use default methods on interfaces remove annoying getters/setters data object.

public interface named {     @xmlattribute(name="name")     default string getname() {         return nameproperty().get();     }      default void setname(string name) {         nameproperty().set(name);     }      stringproperty nameproperty(); } 

this removes alot of redundant code inside implementations. issue now, when trying marshall objects using jaxb, still have implement methods (annotated @shim) in implementations, annotations picked up.

@xmlrootelement(name="business") public class business implements named {      private final stringproperty nameproperty = new simplestringproperty();      @shim     @override     public void setname(string name) {         named.super.setname(name);     }      @shim     @xmlattribute(name="name")     @override     public string getname() {         return named.super.getname();     }      @override     public stringproperty nameproperty() {         return nameproperty;     } } 

in short, if remove @shim printed out xml main method doesn't contain name attribute, , printed out name attribute unmarshalled string null. i'd avoiding spurious/duplicate code.
