Conversion of Mainframe Flat File to XML

I'm trying to convert a mainframe flat file to XML format.  How can I do this?  Thanks!

there are many ways in which this could be achieved. if you already have 
an object representation of that file in java then you could use an 
object->xml mapper (eg castor or betwixt).

if not then it's probably just going to have to be the usual hard slog 
(parse the file then output as xml). you might find it easier to use DOM 
or a DOM alternative (eg dom4j, JDOM) to execute this writing.
