Maybe you could use JAXB.

xjc

With xjc, you can convert your XSD file into JAXB annotated Java classes.

xjc -d src -p com.example.jaxb.beans schema.xsd

This would take the types defined in schema.xsd, and generate in the src folder the corresponding classes in the com.example.jaxb.beans package.

JAXBContext & Marshaller

With the generated classes, JAXBContext and Marshaller you can generate some XML output.

JAXBContext jc = JAXBContext.newInstance("com.example.jaxb.beans");
Marshaller m = jc.createMarshaller();
OutputStream os = new FileOutputStream("output.xml");
m.marshal(element, os);

element being an instance of one of the classes generated previously.
