I don't think JiBX's functionality extends to finding out what the root
element is. This kind of thing is already handled well by apis such as
SAX, DOM, or XMLPull. JiBX is a marshaller/unmarshaller and its really
fast and great at what it does. But if you want to find out the root
element of an object, you have a vast, huge, extensive number of ways to
do it using XML APIs, and after that use JiBX to (un)marshal.

I notice from the usage documentation on the jibx site that in order
to unmarshall a xml document into a object, I need to know in advance
what the type of the object is:
IBindingFactory bfact =
BindingDirectory.getFactory(Customer.class);
IUnmarshallingContext uctx =
bfact.createUnmarshallingContext();
Object obj = uctx.unmarshalDocument(
new FileInputStream("filename.xml"), null);
What if I don't know that "filename.xml" is actually holding a
Customer object? Is there a way to make jibx look in the mapping
automatically to find which object the root element of "filename.xml"
is refering to?
Thanks
