Re: generating custom xml using XDocklet

this is for custom tool woth mappings.
in my application i send data to other applications in the form of POJO. all
other application represents the same data with different name and so while
sending i need to copy data into appropriate attribute in the POJO.  to
achieve this i use a mapping file which contains the attribute name in my
module and the corresponding attribute name in the other application. while
sending data i get data from table and iterates through each attribute. for
each attribute i get the corresponding name from xml mapping and set the
value using reflection. this approach is working fine. but every time if
attribute name modified in any of the application (or new attributes added),
i have manually change the xml file. this approach leads to some small
mistakes; some times it irritates to find the where the problem is.

i think using XDocklet we can maintain the mapping in POJO itself and
generate the mapping based on the POJO. this soultion would clean and helps
lot to maintain as well.

it would great if some one gives me the solution how to generate the xml
mapping based on the java bean.

thanks in advance.
