| <shortdesc>XMLBeans is a technology for accessing XML by binding it to Java types. XMLBeans provides several |
| ways to get at the XML: strong XMLSchema typed model, cursor API, streaming (SAX, Stax) and DOM. XMLBeans |
| covers 100% XMLSchema support while giving access to full infoset of documents. |
| </shortdesc> |
| <description>XMLBeans is a tool that allows you to access the full power of XML in a Java friendly way. The idea |
| is that you can take advantage of the richness and features of XML and XML Schema and have these features |
| mapped as naturally as possible to the equivalent Java language and typing constructs. XMLBeans uses XML |
| Schema to compile Java interfaces and classes that you can then use to access and modify XML instance data. |
| Using XMLBeans is similar to using any other Java interface/class, you will see things like getFoo or setFoo |
| just as you would expect when working with Java. While a major use of XMLBeans is to access your XML |
| instance data with strongly typed Java classes there are also API's that allow you access to the full XML |
| infoset (XMLBeans keeps XML Infoset fidelity) as well as to allow you to reflect into the XML schema itself |
| through an XML Schema Object model. |
| |
| For more details on XMLBeans see the XMLBeans Wiki pages or the XMLBeans documentation (the Documentation |
| tab on this website). |
| What Makes XMLBeans Different |
| |
| There are at least two major things that make XMLBeans unique from other XML-Java binding options. |
| |
| 1. Full XML Schema support. XMLBeans fully supports XML Schema and the corresponding java classes provide |
| constructs for all of the major functionality of XML Schema. This is critical since often times you do not |
| have control over the features of XML Schema that you need to work with in Java. Also, XML Schema oriented |
| applications can take full advantage of the power of XML Schema and not have to restrict themselvs to a |
| subset. |
| 2. Full XML Infoset fidelity.When unmarshalling an XML instance the full XML infoset is kept and is |
| available to the developer. This is critical because because of the subset of XML that is not easily |
| represented in java. For example, order of the elements or comments might be needed in a particular |
| application. |
| |
| A major objective of XMLBeans has been to be applicable in all non-streaming (in memory) XML programming |
| situations. You should be able to compile your XML Schema into a set of java classes and know that 1) you |
| will be able to use XMLBeans for all of the schemas you encounter (even the warped ones) and 2) that you |
| will be able to get to the XML at whatever level is necessary - and not have to resort to multple tools to |
| do this. |
| |
| To accomplish this XMLBeans provides three major APIs: |
| |
| * XmlObject The java classes that are generated from an XML Schema are all derived from XmlObject. These |
| provide strongly typed getters and setters for each of the elements within the defined XML. Complex types |
| are in turn XmlObjects. For example getCustomer might return a CustomerType (which is an XmlObject). Simple |
| types turn into simple getters and setters with the correct java type. For example getName might return a |
| String. |
| * XmlCursor From any XmlObject you can get an XmlCursor. This provides efficient, low level access to the |
| XML Infoset. A cursor represents a position in the XML instance. You can move the cursor around the XML |
| instance at any level of granularity you need from individual characters to Tokens. |
| * SchemaType XMLBeans provides a full XML Schema object model that you can use to reflect on the underlying |
| schema meta information. For example, you might want to generate a sample XML instance for an XML schema or |
| perhaps find the enumerations for an element so that you can display them. |
| |
| All of this was built with performance in mind. Informal benchmarks and user feedback indicate that XMLBeans |
| is extremely fast. |
