"trying to create the same field twice" error doesn't report line number
Try downloading all of the XML Schema files from the web page linked above and then run xjc on CDA.xsd to generate the equivalent Java code. It will fail with this error.
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: trying to create
the same field twice: id
at com.sun.codemodel.JDefinedClass.field(JDefinedClass.java:419)
at com.sun.codemodel.JDefinedClass.field(JDefinedClass.java:390)
at com.sun.tools.xjc.generator.bean.field.AbstractFieldWithVar.createField
(AbstractFieldWithVar.java:71)
at com.sun.tools.xjc.generator.bean.field.SingleField.
The error message is correct, but not helpful. In all other cases when there is an error in an XML Schema file, xjc reports the exact line number where the problem exists. It should also report the line number for a duplicate field name. That would have made it much easier to identify the underlying problem.
