Re: [cinjug-users] Open Source XML Data Binding Tools

[Kumar <kumarkakani@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks to everyone for all your replies. 

Ok, coming to Mike's question ... I am not looking at just my current use-case which very straight forward. Reading data off of a few tables, building XML files and (may archiving it on the mainframe somewhere or sending it through a web service or ftp?). One concern is that the data could potentially be very large so I am not looking at DOM for sure. All this achieved by a Java Application (Batch) on z/OS.

Processing large XML files or generating them has been a requirement in almost all of the projects I worked on here. We also usually have a web front end for entering data - this for clients who can't develop systems capable of processing XML systems. So I am looking at some good tool that can be used for this purpose...Something that can be followed by our team here on a long term basis.

Kumar,

What are your key use cases?  XML data binding can be a large domain,
there are many nice solutions for subsets of thatdomain.

Maybe if you would ask the question in a different manner:

1) here are my key use cases: ......
2) what open source package provides a solution to these use cases?

Good luck,
Mike
