After evaluating JiBX, Castor, JAXB, and several other tools it looks like we'll be using JiBX on an upcoming project. Thanks to Dennis and everyone that has helped us through our evaluation of JiBX!
One thing that I've learned over the years is that there is usually a right way to use a tool and many wrong ways. I'm guessing JiBX is no different. With that in mind are there any pitfalls we should watch out for and are there any best-practices we should adopt? Look like Dennis has added a "tips-and-tricks for general usage and suggestions" topic to the Wiki but hasn't added any content. Some questions that come to my mind are: 1) Should we maintain a reference for the BindingFactory and/or Marshaling/UnmarshalingContexts or create new one's for each document? 2) When does a Mapping make better sense that a Structure? I've seen several instances where either could be used and have generally gone with a Structure except with collections. --Norm -- Norm Deane MIS Consultant Vanderbilt University (615) 322-7855 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: SourceForge.net Broadband Sign-up now for SourceForge Broadband and get the fastest 6.0/768 connection for only $19.95/mo for the first 3 months! http://ads.osdn.com/?ad_id=2562&alloc_id=6184&op=click _______________________________________________ jibx-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/jibx-users
