Open Source Java XML Serialization Libraries

Simple is an XML serialization framework for Java. Its goal is to provide an XML serialization framework that enables rapid development of XML configuration and XML communication applications.

A Java implementation of the XML-RPC Specification, with support for dynamic proxies and serialization of arbitrary Java objects.

Web Objects in XML (serializer) provides easy XML serialization of Java and C# objects. Objects are serialized to a file in a standard XML format. They can then be de-serialized either to Java or C#.

EE MUD includes a large spherical world with dynamically created biomes, weather, and local areas. Need to replace serialization with more efficient caching with less object persistence, redo synchronization model, and use XML loaders over factory method

Atabaque DTDtoBean generates JavaBeans from a specified DTD file. You can choose generate standard Java Beans or using Annotations for XStream or Simple, APIs for XML Serialization. It´s available as a command line, Swing application or NetBeans plugin.

TagPrint is a DOM serialization library. It prints DOM documents with various format, such as XML, HTML, PDF, RTF, etc... You can write these documents very easily.

DOMinator is an XML (de)serialization package for Java objects. The resulting XML files are self-describing and self contained. i.e. no external schemas/definition files required. Extensibility is provided through the use of custom class handlers.

EasyML converts Java objects into XML and back again, without the need for annotations or other types of configuration. EasyML offers extensive support for JDK classes and also supports customization through user settings, user extensions, or through the Java Serialization API. EasyML provides support for: - reading and writing XML text and/or org.w3c.dom documents - Java Collections framework - Java Serialization framework - Multi-threading - Java Generics and functional APIs EasyML can be customized with user-defined serialization strategies. The low-level components, XMLWriter and XMLReader, can be used directly, for a higher control compared to the EasyML Facade. Security policies can also be defined, specifying black- or whitelists of types which are allowed at deserialization time. EasyML on GitHub: http://github.com/cordisvictor/easyml-lib

FFJUXS Free Java Universal XML Serializer: The aim of this project is to create a serializer that supports anything the standard Java Serializion supports (not just JavaBeans) - and more - using the XML file format and giving many options.

Gulfstream is a Java XML serialization/deserialization framework capable of read and write Java primitive types, arrays, collections, JavaBeans and classes marked with special annotations.

JOX is a set of Java libraries that make it easy to transfer data between XML documents and Java beans. You can think of JOX as a special form of Java Object Serialization, using XML as the serialization format.

The JPList project provides a Java library for parsing and building ASCII PList streams to and from Java objects, similar to what JDOM does for XML. PLists provide a more compact and equally rich alternative to XML as a data serialization mechanism.

JSefa is a simple library for stream-based serialization of java objects to XML, CSV, or FLR and back again using an iterator-style interface independent of the serialization format. There is a standard and an android edition available.

A small XML library that uses SAX to parse incoming data and build Java POJO's based on the content. Configuration consists of a single call to map each top-level XML element to a Java POJO. Also, supports basic POJO -> XML serialization.

This project is now abandoned in favour of MorganaXProc-III which implements XProc 3.0: https://sourceforge.net/projects/morganaxproc-iiise/ MorganaXProc is a full implementation of XProc: An XML Pipeline Language (W3C Recommendation 11 May 2010) written in Java, supporting all required and optional steps, the steps proposed on EXProc.org and also the document templating steps "p:in-scope-names" and "p:template". XPath 2.0 or XPath 3.0 is used as expression language. XSLT and XQuery are supported out of the box, while a flexible connector mechanism also allows to employ your favorite XSLT and XQuery processors. The current version is 1.0.x. It is very close to the recommendation with all related tests of the XProc Test Suite passed.

A simple ASN.1 toolkit and libraries to add ASN.1 serialization to Java classes. Serialization schemes are targetted at XML integration.

A binary protocol, library, and utilities for serialization and manipulation of data. Designed to replace XML. Features: *Compact (not compressed) binary encoding. *Strongly-typed, using type definitions. *Platform independant

Framewrok that performs binding, validation and serialization of XML to POJOs (Plain Old Java Objects) and back using annotations, and also generates XSDs from these annotated classes and annotated classes from XSDs.

An alternative to Java's Object Serialization Model using a XML format that is flexible, and parsable and can easily be used to pass data to other languages, and applications, as well as for debugging output.

XMLSer(ializer) is a library to encode Java objects into XML. Currently at a very basic stage, it should still handle most objects properly. Some customization of XML, such as aliasing, is supported. All special handling is done via annotations.

An universal and transparent XML Serializer/Deserializer in Java.

Xemeiah is a fast, modular and scalable XML Framework written in C++, with an efficient DOM and Oasis-compliant XSLT Processor. Xemeiah modules include a persistence layer, a fast Ajax Web Server, a Media Player, ImageMagick frontend, java bindings...

XeriL is a java library that allows to turn a java object into an xml document and vice versa (DTD depends on the object). A powerful concept of mappers (extensible) can tailor the result to your needs. Very useful for configuration files.

A flexible Java-to-XML serializer to output any Java object to XML. Support for many Java API types built-in, as well as a configurable generic serializer to handle many custom types, and a simple API to extend support to object-specific types.

XmlDoclet is a JavaDoc doclet that outputs the source code structure of the packages, classes etc. in XML format. Later, the XML data may easily be processed by standard tools such as XSLT to produce HTML, PDF, dot graphs etc. Technically, this is done by wrapping the class and interfaces of the com.sun.javadoc packages into JAXB annotated classes, which allows for an easy serialization.
