XMLBeam
This is a Java XML library with an extraordinary expressive API.
By using XPath for read and write operations, many operations take only one line of Java code.
This is how it looks:
<xml>
<example>
<content type="foo" >bar</content>
</example>
</xml>Access XML content in an object oriented way:
public interface Example {
// This is a getter for the attribute "type"
@XBRead("/xml/example/content/@type")
String getType();
// This is a getter and a setter for the value of the element "content"
@XBAuto("/xml/example/content")
XBAutoValue<String> content();
}
Example example = new XBProjector().io().file("example.xml").read(Example.class);
String type = example.getType(); // "foo"
String content = example.content().get(); // "bar"
example.content().set("new value");Or, direct access via XPath enabled collection types:
Map<String,String> map = new XBProjector().io().file("example.xml").readAsMapOf(String.class);
String type = map.get("/xml/example/content/@type");
String content = map.get("/xml/example/content");
map.put("/xml/example/content","new value");Learn more on xmlbeam.org
