The release 3.0 of Spring Framework added the Spring Module OXM which supports the marshalling and unmarshalling of Java objects and XML documents.In this post, we will be using Spring OXM to take a Java object, convert it to a XML-format and save it in the hard-disk as an XML file containing information of that Java object. We will also cover how to retrieve back the serialized state of that XML file and reconstruct it back to it's original state as a Java object.

Jackson is a: Streaming (reading, writing) FAST (measured to be faster than any other Java json parser and data binder) Powerful (full data binding for common JDK classes as well as any Java bean class, Collection, Map or Enum) Zero-dependency (does not rely on other packages beyond JDK) Open Source (LGPL or AL) Fully conformant Extremely configurable JSON processor (JSON parser + JSON generator) written in Java. Beyond basic JSON reading/writing (parsing, generating), it also offers full node-based Tree Model, as well as full OJM (Object/Json Mapper) data binding functionality.
