Serialize/Deserialize a DOM Element into a java Object

[Alexis Agahi <al...@users.sourceforge.net>]

Hi all,

Is there a way to deserialize a DOM element into a java object with Axis?
(also how would it be possible to serialize and append an object to a DOM 
element?)

I've successfully perform this feature with apache SOAP 2.3 using 
unmarshaller, but I cannot see the process with Axis encoding package.

Here is a sample of code of what I'm trying to do
Obviously I'm on the wrong way (I guess).

-------------

Element element = ...;
MessageElement me = new MessageElement( element );

ElementDeserializer ed = new ElementDeserializer();
DeserializationContext dc = new DeserializationContextImpl( msgContext, ed );
dc.setCurElement( me );
dc.parse();
Object value = ed.getValue();

--------------

Thanks for any clues.
