XStream is a simple library to serialize objects to XML and back again.
* Ease of use. A high level facade is supplied that simplifies common use cases.
* No mappings required. Most objects can be serialized without need for specifying mappings.
* Performance. Speed and low memory footprint are a crucial part of the design, making it suitable for large
object graphs or systems with high message throughput.
* Clean XML. No information is duplicated that can be obtained via reflection. This results in XML that is
easier to read for humans and more compact than native Java serialization.
* Requires no modifications to objects. Serializes internal fields, including private and final. Supports
non-public and inner classes. Classes are not required to have default constructor.
* Full object graph support. Duplicate references encountered in the object-model will be maintained. Supports
circular references.
* Integrates with other XML APIs. By implementing an interface, XStream can serialize directly to/from any tree
structure (not just XML).
* Customizable conversion strategies. Strategies can be registered allowing customization of how particular
types are represented as XML.
* Error messages. When an exception occurs due to malformed XML, detailed diagnostics are provided to help
isolate and fix the problem.
* Alternative output format. The modular design allows other output formats. XStream ships currently with JSON
support and morphing.
