XMLBeans is a technology for accessing XML by binding it to Java
types. XMLBeans provides several ways to get at the XML, including:
Through XML schema that has been compiled to generate Java types
that represent schema types. In this way, you can access instances
of the schema through JavaBeans-style accessors after the fashion of
"getFoo" and "setFoo".
The XMLBeans API also allows you to reflect into the XML schema
itself through an XML Schema Object model.
A cursor model through which you can traverse the full XML infoset.
Support for XML DOM.
适用的场合
从使用的经验来看,XMLBeans比较适合处理具有复杂Schema定义的xml,如
SAML,Liberty等.而简单的XML结构用Dom4j或者Castor XML Mapping 都很轻易
处理.
因此假如你要处理一个很复杂的Schema定义,选择XMLbeans就比较好.
