Simple Serializer Framework
It is a Java library that allows you to convert a cluster of plain Java objects to a well defined XML format and vice versa. It works similar to the standard Java serialization mechanism, the format is a subset of XML instead of a binary stream.
The focus is on the representation of Java data. Other frameworks focus on the XML and provide mechanisms to represent all XML concepts into Java. SISE works the other way around. SISE wants to represent Java objects in a subset XML called “Simple XML” or SXML. The SXML subset should be as simple as possible, simple enough to represent all Java data correctly. Furthermore, SISE needs to be extensible so that the user of the framework can choose how instances of a class are represented.
