XML + XSD => Java?

Question

I need to make the above equation!

I have an XML file with its XSD schema, and I need to get Java classes with the required code to parse the XML file and create Java objects.

I ask here about the standard (or defacto as apache) utility to make the above request.

Can JAXB do this?

Thanks.

Answer 1

It looks like you want JAX-B , the Java Java Object Binding API.

Answer 2

You need a library to compile xsd to Java types. JAXB and XMLBeans are two such libraries.

With XMLBeans, you can run a simple command to generate Java types:

scomp -out types.jar myschema.xsd
