Unmarshalling XML documents to Java Objects
Hi,
I have to obtain populated Java objects against a XML document (holding
data) and a set of xsds.
I have to send these objects as parameters to the methods of generated
skeleton from Axis1.4.
Please tell me if there is a way similar to JAXB in Axis1.4, for
unmarshalling XML to serialized Java Objects which the Axis1.4 engine can
understand and send it to the skeletons method.
B.R.
Shadab

"Axis2" supports data bindings ADB (Axis Data Bindin), XMLBeans, JibX. Also
Axis2 comes with an object model called AXIOM. There are samples at

Re: Unmarshalling XML documents to Java Objects

I believe Enric is referring to Axis2. Please note that Shadab's
question was in respect to Axis 1.4.
When using Axis 1.4, you can bypass the built-in Axis serialization
framework by using the Message provider, and then use your own
DOM-based XML databinding framework. But I'm not convinced that this
approach will address Shadab's question.
My reading of Shadab's question (please correct me if I'm wrong) is
that his application receives an XML document (not SOAP -- source not
specified). He then wants to map the XML content to Java objects, then
invoke (or perhaps reply to a) SOAP request and map the Java object
content to the SOAP message. The Axis serialization framework will
handle the second part (serialization and deserialization of SOAP
messages to and from Java objects). But Axis does not provide a
general-purpose XML binding framework than can be used with arbitrary
XML documents.

Hi Shadab,
i've been able to build a client and server using jaxb-2.1.2 and
document/literal web service style. If your Schemes are not complex this is
as easy as using the -d jaxbri option from the wsdl2java tool. If your
schemes are complex (i.e. highly architectured) this option is not working
fine but can also be worked around.

Re: Unmarshalling XML documents to Java Objects

I recommend that you use an XML databinding framework, such as JAXB,
Castor XML, or XMLBeans. Alternatively, if you don't need to
manipulate the incoming XML, you could use the Axis message style or
the SAAJ API and simply map the data directly from the incoming XML
(using JAXP) to your SOAP message structure.

Re: Unmarshalling XML documents to Java Objects
Posted by Shadab <sh...@aricent.com>.
Hi Anne,
I have to develop a client that gets the data in the form of XML.
This XML is actually generated by some other party and they seemed to have
done it like this:
-generated Java classes from xsd using JAXB's xjc
-populated the objects of these Java classes with values
-Then generated XML from these Java Objects using Marshal of JAXB.
Now I have to parse this XML into Java Objects so that they can be sent
across to the skeleton's method which would be expecting objects generated
by Axis.
If not understood please ask me again.
And please tell how to convert this XML into Java Objects which can be taken
up by Axis engine and skeleton's method which would be expecting Axis
generated Java type.
Best Regards,
Shadab

Axis provides a built in serialization framework. If you use the RPC
provider, Axis will automatically map Java objects to XML and vice
versa. But this only applies to serialization and deserialization of
the SOAP messages. It can't be used for just any XML document.
Is that what you're looking for?
