Depends what you want to achieve! The obvious way to store an XML document
in an object database is to take a typical DOM implementation (e.g.
Docuverse's) and make each object persistent. However, that level of
granularity may be overkill. The opposite extreme is to store the XML
document as a string in a single persistent object. If you are clever, you
can hide your implementation choice, providing the same interface in both
cases.
