[Axis2] Question on xsd restriction

Hi guys

I've been asked recently to publish some of our existing POJOs as 
webservices using Axis2.
I'm really impressed how easy this is so thanks a lot for this great 
effort.

However, there's one thing I am currently unable to do, concerning the use 
of xsd:restrictions for my string elements (maxLength).
Currently, the generated schema from the WSDL looks like this:

       <xs:schema attributeFormDefault="qualified" 
elementFormDefault="qualified" targetNamespace="http://dps.tsm.ibm.com/xsd
">
            <xs:complexType name="ArchiveRequest">
                <xs:sequence>
                    <xs:element minOccurs="0" name="archiveFileRequest" 
nillable="true" type="ax225:ArchiveFileRequest"/>
                </xs:sequence>
            </xs:complexType>
            <xs:complexType name="ArchiveFileRequest">
                <xs:sequence>
                    <xs:element minOccurs="0" name="checksumType" 
nillable="true" type="xs:string"/>
                    <xs:element minOccurs="0" name="checksumValue" 
nillable="true" type="xs:string"/>
                    <xs:element minOccurs="0" name="fileName" 
nillable="true" type="xs:string"/>
                    <xs:element minOccurs="0" name="overwrite" 
type="xs:boolean"/>
                    <xs:element minOccurs="0" name="tsmDescription" 
nillable="true" type="xs:string"/>
                    <xs:element minOccurs="0" name="tsmFileSpaceName" 
nillable="true" type="xs:string"/>
                    <xs:element minOccurs="0" name="tsmHighLevelName" 
nillable="true" type="xs:string"/>
                    <xs:element minOccurs="0" name="tsmLowLevelName" 
nillable="true" type="xs:string"/>
                    <xs:element minOccurs="0" name="tsmManagementClass" 
nillable="true" type="xs:string"/>
                </xs:sequence>
            </xs:complexType>
            <xs:complexType name="ArchiveResponse">
                <xs:sequence>
                    <xs:element minOccurs="0" name="archiveFileRequest" 
nillable="true" type="ax225:ArchiveFileRequest"/>
                    <xs:element minOccurs="0" name="archiveFileResponse" 
nillable="true" type="ax225:ArchiveFileResponse"/>
                    <xs:element minOccurs="0" name="resultCode" 
type="xs:int"/>
                    <xs:element minOccurs="0" name="resultMessage" 
nillable="true" type="xs:string"/>
                </xs:sequence>
            </xs:complexType>
            <xs:complexType name="ArchiveFileResponse">
                <xs:sequence>
                    <xs:element minOccurs="0" name="checksumValue" 
nillable="true" type="xs:string"/>
                    <xs:element minOccurs="0" name="tsmObjectArchiveDate" 
nillable="true" type="xs:dateTime"/>
                    <xs:element minOccurs="0" name="tsmObjectID" 
type="xs:long"/>
                </xs:sequence>
            </xs:complexType>
        </xs:schema>

However, for certain string elements in ArchiveFileRequest, I would like 
to enforce a restriction based on the maximum length of the string.
Is there a way for the generated XSD to have this enforced from the POJO 
source?
I have been reading about annotations but it's not really clear if this 
works out of the box with Axis2 or if I need another module to have this.

Any help is appreciated.
