Jibx

Another Way to Handle XML in Java

Dave Lucek

Tuesday Aug 23rd 2005 at 7:00pm
Wheaton, Illinois Institute of Technology - Rice Campus, Room 103

Abstract

JiBX is a framework for binding XML data to Java objects. It lets you work with data from XML documents using your own class structures. The JiBX framework handles all the details of converting your data to and from XML based on your instructions. JiBX is designed to perform the translation between internal data structures and XML with very high efficiency, but still allows you a high degree of control over the translation process. Dave will walk through how Jibx can help you work with XML in your next Java project.
