Join David Gassner for an in-depth discussion in this video Comparing XML binding with other programming models, part of Java: XML Integration.
JAXB stands for Java Architecture for XML Binding.…It's a relatively recent API for XML processing.…And like DOM, SaX and StaX, it's included in the Oracle Java SE distribution.…It's a part of Java SE 6 and above.…And just like StaX, there are multiple implementations available.…JAXB is both a reading and a…writing API.…You can use it to both create and parse XML content.…
The programming architecture is based on creating…annotations in plain old Java object classes.…To map the elements of those classes, the properties,…or fields to element or attributes to the XML content.…The actual amount of procedural code you write to process XML with JAXB…is very small. All of the logic is in the annotations.…JAXB is not available for the Android SDK.…That's because it's a memory intensive API…and not really appropriate for resource constrained devices.…
However, if you like the annotation based syntax of JAXB, take a look at Simple…also known as the simple XML serialization framework which I described…in a later chapter.…
