I'm trying to create a XBRL-instance by using JAXB. I could successfully create java models using xjc based on the xbrl-instance schema (http://www.xbrl.org/2003/xbrl-instance-2003-12-31.xsd)
When creating the java classes by using xjc I was following the recommendations of this post (except for the maven part as im not using it): JAXB fails to generate Java classes for XBRL
<bindings xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/jaxb" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2000/10/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xjc="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/jaxb/xjc" version="2.1">
<bindings schemaLocation="xl-2003-12-31.xsd" version="1.0">
<bindings node="//xs:schema//xs:element[@name='title']">
<property name="xlTitle"/>
</bindings>
</bindings>
</bindings>
So now I'm trying to produce a XBRL instance but i get a Java.lang.IllegalArgumentException when initializing the context. I've found another post that recommends to call newInstance() by referring to the package and the ObjectFactory (using classloader). But still the error occurs and i can't really extract any useful information out of the stacktrace.
public class JaxbXbrlInstanceCreationTest {
public static void main(String[] args) {
org.xbrl._2003.instance.ObjectFactory instObjFact = new ObjectFactory();
Xbrl xbrl = instObjFact.createXbrl();
xbrl.setId("Test");
org.xbrl._2003.linkbase.ObjectFactory linkbaseObjFact = new org.xbrl._2003.linkbase.ObjectFactory();
org.xbrl._2003.xlink.ObjectFactory xlinkObjFact = new org.xbrl._2003.xlink.ObjectFactory();
org.xbrl._2003.xlink.SimpleType schemaRefvalue = xlinkObjFact.createSimpleType();
schemaRefvalue.setHref("http://eiopa.europa.eu/eu/xbrl/s2md/fws/solvency/solvency2/2014-07-23/mod/ars.xsd");
schemaRefvalue.setType("simple");
List<SimpleType> schemaRefList = xbrl.getSchemaRef();
schemaRefList.add(linkbaseObjFact.createSchemaRef(schemaRefvalue).getValue());
List<Object> contextList = xbrl.getItemOrTupleOrContext();
Context context = instObjFact.createContext();
context.setId("Context");
ContextEntityType entityType = instObjFact.createContextEntityType();
Identifier identifier = new Identifier();
identifier.setValue("someone");
identifier.setScheme("http://www.example.com");
entityType.setIdentifier(identifier);
context.setEntity(entityType);
ContextPeriodType contextPeriodType = instObjFact.createContextPeriodType();
contextPeriodType.setInstant("2014-02-28");
context.setPeriod(contextPeriodType);
ContextScenarioType contextScenarioType = instObjFact.createContextScenarioType();
context.setScenario(contextScenarioType);
contextList.add(context);
try {
//JAXBContext jaxbContext = JAXBContext.newInstance(Xbrl.class, org.xbrl._2003.instance.ObjectFactory.class);
JAXBContext jaxbContext = JAXBContext.newInstance("org.xbrl._2003.instance", org.xbrl._2003.instance.ObjectFactory.class.getClassLoader());
Marshaller marshaller = jaxbContext.createMarshaller();
marshaller.setProperty( Marshaller.JAXB_FORMATTED_OUTPUT, Boolean.TRUE );
marshaller.marshal( xbrl, new FileOutputStream( "C:/Users/peter.goldenbogen/Desktop/test.xbrl" ) );

I could solve my issue by finding out that the actual stack trace was misleading due to a known bug, that occurs when translating jaxb error messages. See here: https://java.net/jira/browse/JAXB-1017
After all there was still an issue with my jaxb context call, which i solved by referencing all packages in one String seperated by colons.
JAXBContext jaxbContext = JAXBContext.newInstance("org.xbrl._2003.instance:org.xbrl._2003.linkbase:org.xbrl._2003.xlink");
Edit:
Changing locale leads to a more informative error message:
Locale.setDefault(Locale.ENGLISH);`
Output:
com.sun.xml.bind.v2.runtime.IllegalAnnotationsException: 1 counts of IllegalAnnotationExceptions
There's no ObjectFactory with an @XmlElementDecl for the element {http://www.xbrl.org/2003/linkbase}footnoteLink.
