Announce: JaxMe Java/XML

["Wiedmann, Jochen" <jochen.wiedmann@softwareag.com>]

Hi,

I'd like to announce the first public release of
JaxMe, yet another open source Java/XML binding
tool in the style of Castor or Zeus. 

The archive is available from

  http://jaxme.sourceforge.net/


Features are:

  * Very small (Runtime about 31K)
  * Based on SAX2 and JAXP and nothing else, hence
    comparatively fast
  * Currently processes a reduced subset of XML/Schema
    (no choices, no references); choices and recursion
    are on the list of planned features
  * Supports an "any" type
  * Supports namespaces
  * Supports JDBC mapping to an SQL table and reading
    from joined tables; more is possible via manual
    customization (subclassing)

The list of planned features includes a generator
for Entity Beans with BMP, support for the Tamino
database and the like.

I'd be thankful about any feedback.


Yours,

Jochen
