Hi ,

I tried using Mind Electric GLUE. It enabled me to serialize/deserialize classes without having to modify those classes. For eg I had a class which dint have a no arg public constructor and contained instance variables which neednt be serialized. GLUE enabled me to generate a Map file and an XSD file corresponding to the user defined type. In the map file I can indicate which constructor to be used and to map which element to which field.

I like this idea wherein u need to just edit a Map file and the serialization/deserialization is taken care by GLUE.

It would be great if sun provides a tool for java2schema and schema2java conversion in addition to java2wsdl and wsdl2java(xrpcc).

Thanks
