How can I go from an XML String (representing a message + extensions)
written in a file to a jabberbeans Message Object that I use in my code?
I don't know anything about the JabberBeans API, but at the very least you can run the string through an XML parser and get the various elements, from which it's quite easy to get the attributes of the messages. JabberBeans must include or require an XML parser, so you already have one lying around...
