[Simple-support] Atabaque DTDtoBean Tool

SourceForge Headquarters 1320 Columbia Street Suite 310 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 422-6466

Hi Everybody!!!

Tired to write Java Beans by hand?

See the first beta version of Atabaque DTDtoBean, that generates JavaBeans
from an specified DTD file. You can choose generate standard Java Beans or
using Annotations for Simple or XStream. It=B4s available as a command line=
,
Swing application or NetBeans plugin.

This project was started from a necessity of
Atabaque<http://atabaque.sourceforge.net/>project, so that=B4s the
reason for using Atabaque DTDtoBean name.

Hope you enjoy and contribute to it!
