Writing XML

There seem to be a million libraries out there for reading and parsing
XML, but how can I WRITE XML? 

I essentially want to take a Collection of Objects (like a List of
Strings) and create an XML Object from that (That I could save to the
filesystem or a database, or pass along to another Servlet for
processing). 

Can anyone recommend a good API for doing this? 

Thanks,
August

RE: Writing XML

Posted by Danny Ayers <da...@virgilio.it>.
How about DOM? - supported by pretty much any API.
Or extend the classes you are using and add a toString() method that
includes pointy-brackets...
or, if you wrap things up as beans, then SDK 1.4 supports xml serialization.
A direct and neat approach is done by JSX (open source) :

have fun,
