XML-Beans or JAXB?

Folks,
I'm maintaining a map building webapp which is a few years old now.
The user navigates up to a dozen HTML forms which build up a "profile" of the required map. The webapp sends the complete "profile" to a "mapping" tuxedo service, which builds a PDF document of the map and returns it through the webapp to the client, which displays it in Adobe reader.
I've taken "issue" with the volume of code we have around building the XML "profile" from the various request parameters. I'm thinking about replacing it with an XML binder, but which one?
I've been reading up on XML Beans and JAXB, and both look good to me. We're using weblogic 8.1 server, which I believe supports XML beans annotations... very cute.
I had a bit of a google and turned up a couple of old threads, and some product announcements, but no nice meaty white papers, and nothing really since 2004... I presume things have changed in three years.
Thanx in advance. Keith.

george,
We're allready using xalan & xerces (both in Java and C++) which extend XMLBeans capabilities, and weblogic has support for XMLBeans built into it.
We're not currently using any XML-binder in this application, so it's about 5,000 lines bigger than it needs to be... but I've just discovered that we are using XML beans in another (newer) web-application which is maintained by our "sister team"... so I'll get their guru's to talk to our guru's, and hopefully I won't have to make an airtight case for change all by myself... just a watertight one, with a little help from some elevated friends.
So... I think I'll try an XMLBeans prototype and see how it goes.
thanx. keith.

  • Hide name space of generated xml from xml bean

    Hi,
    how can i hide the namespace of the generated xml from xml bean, cause im having problems with jaxb parses.

    The targetNamespace is for webservice and not for the user defined classes.
    Sorry for the confusion

    What my program do is to get the encoding of XML files and convert them to UTF-8 encoding files, while I need this "encoding" information of the original XML document thus I can convert...
    After reading specifications and JDOM docs, the truth turns to be disappointed, no function is provided to get this information in JDOM level 2(the current released one), while it's promissed that this function will be provided in JDOM level API....
    Thanx all for your help and attention!!!

  • XML Beans and Weblogic Server 8.1

    Hi,
    Does anyone know if XML beans is shipped with Weblogic 8.x (or is it only part
    of the Weblogic Workshop) ?
    Thanks,
    Arun

    Greg,
    The classes required for running these command line tools are all there, but
    we have not put the script files in the version bundled with WebLogic
    server. Its very likely to be part of the next service pack release.
    Meanwhile, you can always run the classes from the command line, or write
    your own script. For instance, the dumpxsb.cmd has the following:
    set cp=
    set cp=%cp%;%XMLBEANDIR%\xbean.jar
    java -classpath %cp% com.bea.xbean.tool.XsbDumper %*
    So you can always write this on your own, or just run the concerned class
    from the command line.
    Let me know if you have any further queries.

    Hi,
    Is it possible to use the version of xmlbeans bundled with workshop in a
    standalone sense? Are all the command line tools there? If so can yougive
    a pointer to where abouts in the Workshop download to look for this.
    The reason I ask is noting the following I saw -:
    Note: XQuery is currently only available with the version of XMLBeans
    included with WebLogic Platform. We hope to add these capabilities to the
    stand-alone version soon.

  • Query on XML Beans replacing Castor Java -XML Bindings

    Hello,
    We use Castor XML Framework for today Java - XML bindings and were looking for XML Beans replacement.
    One of the key problems we face in using XML (maybe a flawed design) is we create XSD for our applications and run Castor to generate Java Classes as Libraries (XMLFramework.jar).
    Applications are compiled with these Java libraries and Castor is used to Marshal the Java Object as XML Document when invoking a remote API and at the receiving side it is used to unmarshal back the XML document to Java Object.
    Major issues we have seen is that if any XSD (that defines application ICD) changes, we need to re-generate Castor Java classes (new XMLFramework.jar) and re-compile applications that were using these classes with new JAR files..... Thus for small XSD changes the impact is in lot of applications (where an application is an EAR deployed on WLS)
    Does XMLBeans help here that I can change XSD without changing all the end-points that use Classes generated out of these XSDs (when additing mandatory or optinal elements) ?
    Or there is a flaw in which we have used the Java-XML binding framework like Castor and XMLBeans do not help much ?

    Can someone please suggest on how I can go about
    converting an XML file into word format using Java
    ?How about POI?

    You can't do this securely since any decryption key needed by the application must be available to the application and therefore easy to get at by a knowledgeable attacker. On this basis and since you have a fairly big learning curve to implement any encryption, why not simple Base64 encode the whole file. Easy for anyone in the know to decode but it might be good enough for a school/college/university project.

    XMlbeans would provide with functionality to do what you are trying to do.
    Please refer to the SchemaChoice.jws sample which is shipped with Workshop.
    This sample shows how the document can be validated against a schema.

  • Compare 2 XML Docs using JAXB

    Hello List,
    I use JAXB for parsing and generating XML docs. It works well after some time to learn to use it.
    But now I want compare 2 xml docs.
    I think the equal function is the right way, but I can't find any implementation from this function in the generated classes.
    Do I look right? Is it possible to compare xml docs with JAXB?
    Any other hints.
    regards Dietmar

    Earlier this year, I needed such a tool and finally wrote one after not being able to find one. It was a lot of work. It compared two DOM documents.
    In our case, we were testing a new server implementation to create XML result files from requests from our client. I connected to a new server and an old server and sent the identical input to both. I then validated the two results using DTD's (which is all we had) and then did a brute force comparison of the two Document objects.
    To make things more difficult, there were some known differences. The new version returned a few new tags and attributes in certain cases. I had to avoid using these as a reason to declare a mismatch. Also, there were timestamps and URLs returned in the files I was processing, so I had to ignore these tags as well.
    Another thing to consider is that attributes do not have to be presented in any sequence, so I had to compare in a non-order-specific way. I built two HashMaps, and first looked up each old attribute in the HashMap for new attributes. If I found a match, I removed this attribute from BOTH HashMaps, when I got to the end, anything lef t over in either HashMap was an orphan.
    It was a lot of work, and my solution is probably not usable outside of its environment, and I don't have permission to release the source anyway.

  • Using an XML Bean in a WS Client app

    We're experience problems trying to use a XML Bean returned to a Java application from a WebLogic Workshop Web Service. As a test case we decided to write a Java application that would use the CustomerDB_XMLBeanClient Web Service supported in the SamplesApp application. This Web Service supports a getAllCustomerNames method which returns an XCustomerDocument object generated from an XML Bean. Invoking this method from the WS test page returns three (3) names. We then created a Java Proxy for this WS to import into our client application. This proxy has different method signatures than the WS. The equivalent getAllCustomerNames method returns an XCustomer object. The return object only has one name, the last one. The java proxy jar file does not have any of the XML Bean classes associated with this Web Service, nor can we find any methods that allow us to iterate through the multiple rows returned in an XCustomer object. So far all of the Java client examples that we've looked at utilize an XML Bean's Document Factory class to instantiate an XML Bean. Do we need to import the XML Bean classes in addition to the Java proxy jar? Can anyone provide us with a working example of a Java client application that receives an XML Bean return object from a Web Service? Thanks.

    The answer:
    emoticons.put("<3", ClassLoader.getSystemClassLoader().getResource("images"+File.separator+"heart.gif").toString());// <3The above solution worked for me when i put the images folder in the default package.
    And to present the file in an image on JEditorPane:
    if(msg.contains("<3")){ // alternately iterate key elements in map
         msg.replaceAll("<3","<img src=\""+emoticons.get("<3")+"\">");
    }This was the only problem I had and it has now been solved!
    If you have any problems with the same thing, post a message and we'll figure it out.

  • XML Beans and Weblogic 7

    Hi - I am interested to use the XML Beans development kit - but I only have a
    WebLogic 7 app server to work with. Is there a way to get around the requirement
    for xqrl.jar to run the examples such as the easypo example? I found myself getting
    compilation errors for the src files that were generated by the schema compiler
    complaining about not being able to find some com.bea.xquery classes which I am
    assuming reside in this jar (xqrl.jar). Is it required that I download the whole
    WLS 8.1 platform just to get this jar? Thanks for any advice.

    Greg,
    The classes required for running these command line tools are all there, but
    we have not put the script files in the version bundled with WebLogic
    server. Its very likely to be part of the next service pack release.
    Meanwhile, you can always run the classes from the command line, or write
    your own script. For instance, the dumpxsb.cmd has the following:
    set cp=
    set cp=%cp%;%XMLBEANDIR%\xbean.jar
    java -classpath %cp% com.bea.xbean.tool.XsbDumper %*
    So you can always write this on your own, or just run the concerned class
    from the command line.
    Let me know if you have any further queries.
    Regards,
    Anurag

    Hi,
    Is it possible to use the version of xmlbeans bundled with workshop in a
    standalone sense? Are all the command line tools there? If so can yougive
    a pointer to where abouts in the Workshop download to look for this.
    The reason I ask is noting the following I saw -:
    Note: XQuery is currently only available with the version of XMLBeans
    included with WebLogic Platform. We hope to add these capabilities to the
    stand-alone version soon.

    Arun,
    WebLogic Platform 8.1 GA which includes Workshop does contain an
    xmlbeans
    implementation.
    We also have a stand alone implementation which is available on dev2dev.
    Thanks

    Thanks. But what we have found out from BEA is that it does not shipwith Weblogic
    Server. You have to download it separately.

    Does anyone know if XML beans is shipped with Weblogic 8.x (or is it
    only part of the Weblogic Workshop) ?yes, it is shipped in Platform 8.1 (I'm pretty sure its shipping in
    Server
    8.1
    too). Although the version is slightly older than the version
    available
    on the
    dev2dev site.
