> Historically, org.apache.axiom.om.impl.llom.factory.OMXMLBuilderFactory was used to create Axiom trees from XML documents (and there are still places in Axis2 where this is used). Unfortunately, this class is located in the wrong package and JAR (it is implementation independent but belongs to LLOM). Nowadays, the standard way to create an Axiom tree is to instantiate StAXOMBuilder or one of its subclasses directly. However, this is not optimal for two reasons:
> * It implies the assumption that every implementation of the Axiom API necessarily uses StAXOMBuilder. This means that an implementation doesn't have the freedom to provide its own builder implementation (e.g. in order to implement some special optimizations).
> * StAXOMBuilder belongs to a package which has "impl" in its name. This tends to blur the distinction between the public API and internal implementation classes.
> There should be an abstract API for creating builder instances. It should be defined in terms of interfaces (such as OMXMLParserWrapper). OMMetaFactory is a good candidate for this because it is already used to encapsulate an implementation of the Axiom API (there is one implementation of OMMetaFactory for LLOM and one for DOOM).
