I've published open source code and format definitions for a project I developed called "XML Serial Encoding" (XMLS). This provides far better performance for sending documents between programs than either text or Java serialization. The code comes with adapters for use with both dom4j and JDOM.
The main page for this project is at http://www.sosnoski.com/opensrc/xmls/index.html, and the test results are at http://www.sosnoski.com/opensrc/xmls/results.html. It'll probably be going through some fairly minor changes over the next couple of months before the 1.0 release, but should be usable with most types of documents now. Hope people find it of use! - Dennis _______________________________________________ dom4j-dev mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/dom4j-dev
