Help with Deserializer XML to Java Object

Question

Hello,
I need Deserializer a xml to Object using SAX or another technology
My code is the follow:
*          java.io.Writer stringWriter = new StringWriter();*
*          org.apache.axis.encoding.SerializationContext context0 = new SerializationContext(stringWriter,*
*                    null);*
*          javax.xml.namespace.QName qname = new javax.xml.namespace.QName(*
*                    "http://xxxxxx", "WSUpdateDocumentResponse");*
*          org.apache.axis.encoding.ser.BeanSerializer serializer = new BeanSerializer(WSUpdateDocumentResponse.class,*
*                    qname);*
*          serializer.serialize(qname, null, resp, context0);*
*          String deserializaXML = stringWriter.toString();*
The variable deserializaXML contains el XML as String.
+<ns1:WSUpdateDocumentResponse xmlns:ns1="http://xxxxxxx">+
+<documentCode xsi:type="xsd:string" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">+
+43723+
+</documentCode>+
+<updateMessageList xsi:type="ns1:ArrayOfWSUpdateMessage" xsi:nil="true" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"/>+
+</ns1:WSUpdateDocumentResponse>+
That's is ok, but the problem is when, I try The reverse engineering.
The code is the following:
*          org.apache.axis.encoding.Deserializer bean = WSUpdateDocumentResponse.getDeserializer(deserializaXML,*
*                                                                                     WSUpdateDocumentResponse.class,*
*                                                                                     new javax.xml.namespace.QName("http://xxxxxx, "WSUpdateDocumentResponse"));*
*          WSUpdateDocumentResponse resp2 = (WSUpdateDocumentResponse)bean.getValue();*
The object not load correctly, all variables are null.
Any idea?
Thanks.
Regards
P.D.: The bean WSUpdateDocumentResponse was generated with Axis 1.2RC2, i haven't another option by the dependences project

Hi,
Check the methods like getElementById() and getElementByTagName and the corresponding Namespace aware equivalents. Once you have your orders, you can iterate over them and build your target xml.
Personally, I think your teacher sold you a lemon. This is a job that is best done using XSLT and doing this using dom is like using your bicycle to get to saturn when you have a starship available.
