  <div style="margin-left: 0 ; border: 2px">
  <p>To start out, you'll need the XMLBeans binaries. You can get these in one of two ways:</p>
  <ul>
  			
  <li>To get started more quickly, you can 
  			<a href="../sourceAndBinaries/index.html#XMLBeans+Version+1+Binary+and+Development+Kit">Download the
  			XMLBeans release.</a>
  </li>
  			
  <li>If you're interested, you can also <a href="../sourceAndBinaries/index.html#XMLBeans+Source">build 
  			from the source</a>.</li>

  <a name="N10026"></a><a name="Set+Environment+Variables"></a>
  <h3>Set Environment Variables</h3>
  <div style="margin-left: 0 ; border: 2px">
  <p>After downloading and unzipping XMLBeans, you'll need to add environment variables that allow you to 
  			use the XMLBeans tools and binaries.</p>
  <p>The following instructions assume you're using the XMLBeans release, whose directory structure looks 
  			like this:</p>
  <pre class="code">&lt;xmlbeans-version&gt;
      bin (location of tools)
      docs
      lib (location of xbean.jar)
      ...</pre>
  <p>If you're building from source, paths will differ slightly (note the location of xbean.jar). You should account for this when setting up your environment.</p>
  <pre class="code">&lt;xmlbeans-version&gt;
      bin (location of tools)
      build
          ...
          lib (location of xbean.jar)
          ...</pre>
  <a name="N1003F"></a><a name="Windows+Setup"></a>
  <h4>Windows Setup</h4>
  <div style="margin-left: 0 ; border: 2px">
  <p>On Windows, do the following:</p>
  <ol>
  				
  <li>Right-click <strong>My Computer</strong>, then click <strong>Properties</strong>.</li>
  				
  <li>On the <strong>Advanced</strong> tab, click <strong>Environment Variables</strong>.</li>
  				
  <li>Add an <span class="codefrag">XMLBEANS_HOME</span> variable whose value is the XMLBeans location. 
  				<p>For example, if you downloaded the XMLBeans release to the root of your C drive, this might 
  				be <span class="codefrag">c:\xmlbeans-1.0.2.</span>
  </p>
  </li>
  				
  <li>Edit the <span class="codefrag">PATH</span> variable so that it includes the bin directory of your XMLBeans 
  				installation. For the XMLBeans release, you could add <span class="codefrag">%XMLBEANS_HOME%\bin</span>.</li>
  				
  <li>Edit the <span class="codefrag">CLASSPATH</span> variable to include the xbean.jar included with XMLBeans. 
  				<p>This is located in the lib directory. If you built XMLBeans from source, you can also use the 
  				JAR file in the build/ar or build/lib directories.</p>
  </li>
  			
  </ol>
  <p>Note that you may also need to edit your PATH variable so that the JDK is earlier in the path. For more 
  			information, see the <a target="_top" href="http://wiki.apache.org/xmlbeans/XmlBeansV1Faq#scompFindingJavac">XMLBeans 
  			FAQ</a>.</p>
  </div>
  <a name="N10080"></a><a name="UNIX%2FLinux+Setup"></a>
  <h4>UNIX/Linux Setup</h4>
  <div style="margin-left: 0 ; border: 2px">
  <p>On UNIX/Linux, update your environment as follows:</p>
  <ol>
  				
  <li>
  <span class="codefrag">export XMLBEANS_HOME=&lt;location of XMLBeans root&gt;</span>
  </li>
  				
  <li>
  <span class="codefrag">export PATH=$PATH:$XMLBEANS_HOME/bin</span>
  </li>
  			
  </ol>
  <p>Your updates might look like this:</p>
  <pre class="code">export XMLBEANS_HOME=/Users/me/xmlstuff/xmlbeans-1.0.2
  export PATH=$PATH:$XMLBEANS_HOME/bin</pre>
  </div>
  <p>Once you've updated your environment paths, you should be set up to use the tools that come with XMLBeans. 
  				These include a schema compiler, an instance validator, and more.</p>
  <p>To get started understanding and using XMLBeans, 
  				see <a href="../docs/guide/conGettingStartedwithXMLBeans.html">Getting Started with XMLBeans</a>.</p>

  -<h3>Introduction to XMLBeans</h3>
  -<div style="margin-left: 0 ; border: 2px">
  -<p>XMLBeans is a tool that allows you to access the <em>full</em> power of XML in a Java friendly way.  It is an XML-Java binding tool.  The idea is that you can 
  -			take advantage the richness and features of XML and XML Schema and have these features mapped as naturally as possible to the equivalent Java language and typing 
  -			constructs.  XMLBeans uses XML Schema to <em>compile</em> Java interfaces and classes that you can then use to access and modify XML instance data.  
  -			Using XMLBeans is similar to using any other Java interface/class, you will see things like <span class="codefrag">getFoo</span> or <span class="codefrag">setFoo</span> just as 
  -			you would
  -			expect when working with Java.  While a major use of XMLBeans is to access your XML instance data with strongly typed Java classes there are also
  -			API's that allow you access to the full XML infoset (XMLBeans keeps full XML Infoset fidelity) as well as to allow you to <em>reflect</em> into the XML schema
  -			itself through an XML Schema Object model.</p>
  -<p>For more details on XMLBeans see the <a href="http://nagoya.apache.org/wiki/apachewiki.cgi?XmlBeansExplanation">XMLBeans Explanation</a> Wiki page. 
  -			As well as the XMLBeans documentation (see the Documentation tab on this website as well as the docs directory in the XMLBeans Source).</p>
  -<a name="N1002B"></a><a name="What+makes+XMLBeans+Different"></a>
  -<h4>What makes XMLBeans Different</h4>
  -<div style="margin-left: 0 ; border: 2px">
  -<p>There are at least two major things that make XMLBeans unique from other XML-Java binding options.</p>
  -<ol>
  -					
  -<li>
  -						
  -<strong>Full XML Schema support.</strong> XMLBeans fully supports XML Schema and the corresponding java classes provide constructs
  -      					for all of the major functionality of XML Schema.  This is critical since often times you do not have control over the features of XML Schema
  -      					that you need to work with in Java.  Also, XML Schema oriented applications can take full advantage of the power of XML Schema and not
  -      					have to restrict themselvs to a subset.</li>
  -					
  -<li>
  -						
  -<strong>Full XML Infoset fidelity.</strong>When unmarshalling an XML instance the full XML infoset is kept and is available to the developer.  This is
  -      					critical because because of the subset of XML that is not easily represented in java.   For example, order of the elements or comments might
  -      					be needed in a particular application.</li>
  -				
  -</ol>
  -<p>A major objective of XMLBeans has been to be applicable in <em>all</em> non-streaming (in memory) XML programming situations.  You should be
  -      				able to compile your XML Schema into a set of java classes and know that 1) you will be able to use XMLBeans for all of the schemas you encounter
  -      				(even the warped ones) and 2) that you will be able to get to the XML at whatever level is necessary - and not have to resort to multple
  -      				tools to do this.</p>
  -<p>To accomplish this XMLBeans provides three major APIs:</p>
  -<ul>
  -					
  -<li>
  -						
  -<strong>XmlObject</strong>  The java classes that are generated from an XML Schema are all derived from XmlObject.  These provide strongly
  -      					typed getters and setters for each of the elements within the defined XML.  Complex types are in turn XmlObjects.  For example getCustomer
  -      					might return a CustomerType (which is an XmlObject).  Simple types turn into simple getters and setters with the correct java type.  For
  -      					example getName might return a String.</li>
  -					
  -<li>
  -						
  -<strong>XmlCursor</strong> From any XmlObject you can get an XmlCursor.  This provides efficient, low level access to the XML Infoset.  A cursor 
  -      					represents a position in the XML instance.  You can move the cursor around the XML instance at any level of granularity you need
  -      					from individual characters to Tokens.</li>
  -					
  -<li>
  -						
  -<strong>SchemaType</strong>  XMLBeans provides a full XML Schema object model that you can use to reflect on the underlying schema meta information.
  -      					For example, you might want to generate a sample XML instance for an XML schema or perhaps find the enumerations for an element
  -      					so that you can display them.</li>
  -				
  -</ul>
  -<p>All of this was built with performance in mind.   Informal benchmarks and user feedback indicate that XMLBeans is extremely fast.</p>

  -<a name="N10066"></a><a name="History"></a>
  -<h3>History</h3>
  -<div style="margin-left: 0 ; border: 2px">
  -<p>XMLBeans was submitted to Apache by BEA Systems in September 2003 and is currently in the Apache incubation process.  
  -			XMLBeans was originally created because of the need seen by developers, in particular David Bau 
  -			(<a href="http://nagoya.apache.org/eyebrowse/ReadMsg?listName=xmlbeans-dev@xml.apache.org&msgNo=93">David's about me post</a>),  
  -			need for a more XML centric Java binding model that nothing on the market offered.   XMLBeans 1.0 has been successfully used as an underlying technology for several
  -			products as well as by a growing number of large users including some of the largest companies in the world.</p>
  -</div>
  -		
  -<a name="N10074"></a><a name="Future"></a>
  -<h3>Future</h3>
  -<div style="margin-left: 0 ; border: 2px">
  -<p>The future of XMLBeans is exciting and you are invited to contribute.  XMLBeans Version 1 is a great, stable technology that will continue to 
  -			improve going forward.  Its emphasis on full support for XML Schema and the XML Infoset along with it's performance
  -			charactaristics make it a great choice for in-memory XML-Java programming. </p>
  -<p>Work has begun on planning XMLBeans 2.0.  At this point it appears that the major emphasis for XMLBeans 2.0 are new use cases that expand
  -			the breadth of XMLBeans.  The observation is that XML-Java binding occurs in situations that XMLBeans could be optimized for, areas
  -			such as Web Services (XMLBeans works well now in many Web Services situations) and Java to XML Schema scenarios .  
  -			See the <a href="http://nagoya.apache.org/wiki/apachewiki.cgi?XmlBeansRoadMap">XMLBeans Roadmap</a> and the 
  -			<a href="http://nagoya.apache.org/wiki/apachewiki.cgi?XmlBeansFeaturePlan">XMLBeans Feature Plan</a> wiki page for
  -			more information.  XMLBeans is actively looking for contributors and committers so, if you are interested, please join in.</p>

  +<h3>Introduction to XMLBeans</h3>
  +<div style="margin-left: 0 ; border: 2px">
  +<p>XMLBeans is a tool that allows you to access the <em>full</em> power of XML in a Java friendly way.  It is an XML-Java binding tool.  The idea is that you can 
  +			take advantage the richness and features of XML and XML Schema and have these features mapped as naturally as possible to the equivalent Java language and typing 
  +			constructs.  XMLBeans uses XML Schema to <em>compile</em> Java interfaces and classes that you can then use to access and modify XML instance data.  
  +			Using XMLBeans is similar to using any other Java interface/class, you will see things like <span class="codefrag">getFoo</span> or <span class="codefrag">setFoo</span> just as 
  +			you would
  +			expect when working with Java.  While a major use of XMLBeans is to access your XML instance data with strongly typed Java classes there are also
  +			API's that allow you access to the full XML infoset (XMLBeans keeps full XML Infoset fidelity) as well as to allow you to <em>reflect</em> into the XML schema
  +			itself through an XML Schema Object model.</p>
  +<p>For more details on XMLBeans see the <a href="http://nagoya.apache.org/wiki/apachewiki.cgi?XmlBeansExplanation">XMLBeans Explanation</a> Wiki page. 
  +			As well as the XMLBeans documentation (see the Documentation tab on this website as well as the docs directory in the XMLBeans Source).</p>
  +<a name="N1002B"></a><a name="What+makes+XMLBeans+Different"></a>
  +<h4>What makes XMLBeans Different</h4>
  +<div style="margin-left: 0 ; border: 2px">
  +<p>There are at least two major things that make XMLBeans unique from other XML-Java binding options.</p>
  +<ol>
  +					
  +<li>
  +						
  +<strong>Full XML Schema support.</strong> XMLBeans fully supports XML Schema and the corresponding java classes provide constructs
  +      					for all of the major functionality of XML Schema.  This is critical since often times you do not have control over the features of XML Schema
  +      					that you need to work with in Java.  Also, XML Schema oriented applications can take full advantage of the power of XML Schema and not
  +      					have to restrict themselvs to a subset.</li>
  +					
  +<li>
  +						
  +<strong>Full XML Infoset fidelity.</strong>When unmarshalling an XML instance the full XML infoset is kept and is available to the developer.  This is
  +      					critical because because of the subset of XML that is not easily represented in java.   For example, order of the elements or comments might
  +      					be needed in a particular application.</li>
  +				
  +</ol>
  +<p>A major objective of XMLBeans has been to be applicable in <em>all</em> non-streaming (in memory) XML programming situations.  You should be
  +      				able to compile your XML Schema into a set of java classes and know that 1) you will be able to use XMLBeans for all of the schemas you encounter
  +      				(even the warped ones) and 2) that you will be able to get to the XML at whatever level is necessary - and not have to resort to multple
  +      				tools to do this.</p>
  +<p>To accomplish this XMLBeans provides three major APIs:</p>
  +<ul>
  +					
  +<li>
  +						
  +<strong>XmlObject</strong>  The java classes that are generated from an XML Schema are all derived from XmlObject.  These provide strongly
  +      					typed getters and setters for each of the elements within the defined XML.  Complex types are in turn XmlObjects.  For example getCustomer
  +      					might return a CustomerType (which is an XmlObject).  Simple types turn into simple getters and setters with the correct java type.  For
  +      					example getName might return a String.</li>
  +					
  +<li>
  +						
  +<strong>XmlCursor</strong> From any XmlObject you can get an XmlCursor.  This provides efficient, low level access to the XML Infoset.  A cursor 
  +      					represents a position in the XML instance.  You can move the cursor around the XML instance at any level of granularity you need
  +      					from individual characters to Tokens.</li>
  +					
  +<li>
  +						
  +<strong>SchemaType</strong>  XMLBeans provides a full XML Schema object model that you can use to reflect on the underlying schema meta information.
  +      					For example, you might want to generate a sample XML instance for an XML schema or perhaps find the enumerations for an element
  +      					so that you can display them.</li>
  +				
  +</ul>
  +<p>All of this was built with performance in mind.   Informal benchmarks and user feedback indicate that XMLBeans is extremely fast.</p>

  +<a name="N10066"></a><a name="History"></a>
  +<h3>History</h3>
  +<div style="margin-left: 0 ; border: 2px">
  +<p>XMLBeans was submitted to Apache by BEA Systems in September 2003 and is currently in the Apache incubation process.  
  +			XMLBeans was originally created because of the need seen by developers, in particular David Bau 
  +			(<a href="http://nagoya.apache.org/eyebrowse/ReadMsg?listName=xmlbeans-dev@xml.apache.org&msgNo=93">David's about me post</a>),  
  +			need for a more XML centric Java binding model that nothing on the market offered.   XMLBeans 1.0 has been successfully used as an underlying technology for several
  +			products as well as by a growing number of large users including some of the largest companies in the world.</p>
  +</div>
  +		
  +<a name="N10074"></a><a name="Future"></a>
  +<h3>Future</h3>
  +<div style="margin-left: 0 ; border: 2px">
  +<p>The future of XMLBeans is exciting and you are invited to contribute.  XMLBeans Version 1 is a great, stable technology that will continue to 
  +			improve going forward.  Its emphasis on full support for XML Schema and the XML Infoset along with it's performance
  +			charactaristics make it a great choice for in-memory XML-Java programming. </p>
  +<p>Work has begun on planning XMLBeans 2.0.  At this point it appears that the major emphasis for XMLBeans 2.0 are new use cases that expand
  +			the breadth of XMLBeans.  The observation is that XML-Java binding occurs in situations that XMLBeans could be optimized for, areas
  +			such as Web Services (XMLBeans works well now in many Web Services situations) and Java to XML Schema scenarios .  
  +			See the <a href="http://nagoya.apache.org/wiki/apachewiki.cgi?XmlBeansRoadMap">XMLBeans Roadmap</a> and the 
  +			<a href="http://nagoya.apache.org/wiki/apachewiki.cgi?XmlBeansFeaturePlan">XMLBeans Feature Plan</a> wiki page for
  +			more information.  XMLBeans is actively looking for contributors and committers so, if you are interested, please join in.</p>
