XML with Java

[AndrewM16921]

Hey,

I've been looking around the internet for the best api to work with xml in java (preferably one included in the jdk, if one exists). I heard SAX was probably my best choice, but when looking for tutorials on using the api I didn't find a whole lot of relavent stuff. I ended up writing my own xml parser at one point (a while ago), but I'd much rather use a standard. I don't know how they work, though. Mine would just load it into memory in a tree structure, and I had methods like addChild(node) and setAttribute(key, value), save it as needed, and things like that. So, any advice you can give, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks,
Andrew

Nvm, I found a nice article on DOM.

If you need to transform XML into objects and visa-versa, read up on JAXB as that's probably the slickest Java interface with XML.
