having

String translationXsd = TranslationPropertyHelper.getFileLocation(PropertyKey.TRANSLATE_XSD_FILE);
 File translationXsdFile = new File(translationXsd);

 SchemaFactory schemaFactory = SchemaFactory.newInstance(XMLConstants.W3C_XML_SCHEMA_NS_URI);
 Schema schema = schemaFactory.newSchema(translationXsdFile);

 JAXBContext jaxbContext = JAXBContext
 .newInstance(translationJob.getClass().getPackage().getName());
 Marshaller marshaller = jaxbContext.createMarshaller();
 OutputStream os = new FileOutputStream(pOutputFile);
 XMLOutputFactory xmlof = XMLOutputFactory.newInstance();
 XMLStreamWriter xsw = new IndentingXMLStreamWriter(xmlof.createXMLStreamWriter(os));
 marshaller.setProperty(Marshaller.JAXB_ENCODING, "UTF-8");
 marshaller.setProperty(Marshaller.JAXB_FORMATTED_OUTPUT, Boolean.TRUE);
 marshaller.setProperty(Marshaller.JAXB_NO_NAMESPACE_SCHEMA_LOCATION, translationXsdFile.getName());
 marshaller.setSchema(schema);
 marshaller.marshal(translationJob, xsw);
 xsw.close();

having a freetext, e.g. "hello i have < b > bold < / b > text inside." in node

generates

<freetextnode>hello i have &lt; b > bold &lt; / b > text inside.</freetextnode>

expectation is:

<freetextnode>hello i have &lt; b &gt; bold &lt; / b &gt; text inside.</freetextnode>

JavaEE 7.

You need to merge marshalling with com.sun.xml.internal.bind.marshaller.DumbEscapeHandler. From JavaDoc:

Escape everything above the US-ASCII code range. A fallback position.
Works with any JDK, any encoding.

Simple example how to use it:

import com.sun.xml.internal.bind.marshaller.DataWriter;
import com.sun.xml.internal.bind.marshaller.DumbEscapeHandler;

import javax.xml.bind.JAXBContext;
import javax.xml.bind.Marshaller;
import javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlRootElement;
import javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlValue;
import java.io.PrintWriter;

public class JaxbApp 

 public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception 
 FreeTextNode dataFile = new FreeTextNode();
 dataFile.setValue("hello i have < b > bold < / b > text inside.");
 JAXBContext jaxbContext = JAXBContext.newInstance(FreeTextNode.class);
 Marshaller marshaller = jaxbContext.createMarshaller();

 PrintWriter printWriter = new PrintWriter(System.out);
 DataWriter dataWriter = new DataWriter(printWriter, "UTF-8", DumbEscapeHandler.theInstance);
 marshaller.marshal(dataFile, dataWriter);
 


@XmlRootElement(name = "freetextnode")
class FreeTextNode 

 private String value;

 @XmlValue
 public String getValue() 
 return value;
 

 public void setValue(String value) 
 this.value = value;
 

Above code prints:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<freetextnode>hello i have &lt; b &gt; bold &lt; / b &gt; text inside.</freetextnode>
