17.7 JiBX

The JiBX framework offers a solution similar to that which Hibernate provides for ORM: a binding definition defines the rules for how your Java objects are converted to or from XML. After preparing the binding and compiling the classes, a JiBX binding compiler enhances the class files, and adds code to handle converting instances of the classes from or to XML.

For more information on JiBX, refer to theJiBX web site. The Spring integration classes reside in theorg.springframework.oxm.jibxpackage.
