One question I have is, how and when is the generation supposed to occur?

IOW, what is the environment?

And where did the Map come from? If, as you replied to Arne, your schema 
can change, what process is responsible for creating new Maps that are 
relevant for updated schemas? Such a map, after all, should be a Java 
analog of an XML instance for the target schema, you don't need the 
schema at that point to generate a valid XML.
