XSD schema string elements Encrypt/Decrypt

Question

How could I make the XSD schema string element(password) as type encrypted, This in turn would be used in XSD to java code generator encrypt and decrypt during Writing/Reading process of XML not just validation.

Does any XSD to java class generator provide this feature ??

Cheers, Reddy.
