Class SimpleXMLSaver

  com.softsynth.jmsl.util.SimpleXMLSaver

public class SimpleXMLSaver
extends java.lang.Object

Write out an XML file that describes an Object, with values for all matching get/set methods that handle primitive types (String, boolean, int, double), the class name, and tag of your choice. Example, Class com.widgits.City below has matching get/set methods for popuation

 package com.widgits;

public class City {
int population;

public City() {
}

public void setPopulation(int p) {
        this.population = p;
}

public int getPopulation() {
        return population;
}

public static void main(String args[]) {
   try {                
     City myCity = new City();
     myCity.setPopulation(10000);
     java.io.PrintWriter pout = new java.io.PrintWriter(new java.io.FileOutputStream("city.xml"));
     (new com.softsynth.jmsl.util.SimpleXMLSaver(myCity, "SomeXMLTag")).writeXML(pout);
     pout.close();

 // now read it back in to create a new object with same population as the saved one
     com.softsynth.jmsl.util.SimpleXMLLoader loader = new com.softsynth.jmsl.score.util.SimpleXMLLoader();
     City loadedCity= (City)loader.loadXML("city.xml");
     System.out.println("population=" + loadedCity.getPopulation());
  }
        catch (java.io.IOException e) {
                System.out.println("ERROR in main: " + e);                              
        }

}

}

The XML file written in main() looks like this:

  (openbracket)SomeXMLTag CLASSNAME="com.widgits.City" Population="10000" (closebracket)
  (openbracket)/SomeXMLTag (closebracket)
