1. Was ist XStream?

XStream ist eine Java Open Source Code Library. Es wandelt ein Java Objekt zu einem XML Dokument um und umgekehrt

2. Die Bibliothek XStream

Sie können die Bibliothek XStream bei ... herunterladen:
Oder melden Sie die Anwendung von der Bibliothek XStream mit Maven an
<!-- http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.thoughtworks.xstream/xstream -->
<dependency>
    <groupId>com.thoughtworks.xstream</groupId>
    <artifactId>xstream</artifactId>
    <version>1.4.8</version>
</dependency>

3. Einige Klasse zur Teilnahme an die Beispiele

Address.java
package org.o7planning.xstreamtutorial.beans;

public class Address {
   
   private String street;
   private String city;

   public Address() {

   }

   public Address(String street, String city) {
       this.street = street;
       this.city = city;
   }

   public String getStreet() {
       return street;
   }

   public void setStreet(String street) {
       this.street = street;
   }

   public String getCity() {
       return city;
   }

   public void setCity(String city) {
       this.city = city;
   }

   @Override
   public String toString() {
       return street + ", " + city;
   }
   
}
Company.java
package org.o7planning.xstreamtutorial.beans;

public class Company {

   private int id;
   private String name;
   private String[] websites;
   private Address address;

   public int getId() {
       return id;
   }

   public void setId(int id) {
       this.id = id;
   }

   public String getName() {
       return name;
   }

   public void setName(String name) {
       this.name = name;
   }

   public String[] getWebsites() {
       return websites;
   }

   public void setWebsites(String[] websites) {
       this.websites = websites;
   }

   public Address getAddress() {
       return address;
   }

   public void setAddress(Address address) {
       this.address = address;
   }

   @Override
   public String toString() {
       StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();

       sb.append("\n id:" + this.id);
       sb.append("\n name:" + this.name);
       if (this.websites != null) {
           sb.append("\n website: ");
           for (String website : this.websites) {
               sb.append(website + ", ");
           }
       }
       if (this.address != null) {
           sb.append("\n address:" + this.address.toString());
       }
       return sb.toString();
   }

}
DataDAO.java
package org.o7planning.xstreamtutorial;

import org.o7planning.xstreamtutorial.beans.Address;
import org.o7planning.xstreamtutorial.beans.Company;

public class DataDAO {

   
   
   public static Company createCompany() {

       Company company = new Company();
       company.setId(111);
       company.setName("Microsoft");

       String[] websites = { "http://microsoft.com",
               "http://msn.com", "http://hotmail.com" };
       company.setWebsites(websites);

       Address address = new Address();
       address.setCity("Redmond");
       address.setStreet("1 Microsoft Way");

       company.setAddress(address);

       return company;
   }
   
}

4. Das Java Objekt zur XML umwandeln

Änders als JAXB kann XStream ein Java Objekt zum XML ohne eine Abbildung (mapping) umwandeln. Es benutzt eine standardmäßige Abbildung. Sehen Sie bitte das folgende Beispiel
JavaObject2Xml.java
package org.o7planning.xstreamtutorial;

import org.o7planning.xstreamtutorial.beans.Company;

import com.thoughtworks.xstream.XStream;

public class JavaObject2Xml {

   public static void main(String[] args) {
       
       Company company = DataDAO.createCompany();
       
       XStream xs = new XStream();
       
       
       // JAVA OBJECT --> XML
       String xml = xs.toXML(company);
       
       System.out.println(xml);
   }
   
   
}
Starten Sie das Beispiel
<org.o7planning.xstreamtutorial.beans.Company>
  <id>111</id>
  <name>Microsoft</name>
  <websites>
    <string>http://microsoft.com</string>
    <string>http://msn.com</string>
    <string>http://hotmail.com</string>
  </websites>
  <address>
    <street>1 Microsoft Way</street>
    <city>Redmond</city>
  </address>
</org.o7planning.xstreamtutorial.beans.Company>

5. Alias benutzen (Das Pseudonym)

Bei der Umwandlung eines Java Objekt zum XML ändert XStream den Klassename zum Namen eines XML Tag. Das Aliasing ist die Technik zur Anpassung der erstellten XML. Es gibt 5 Aliasingstype
  • Das Klasse Aliasing (class)
  • Das Feld Aliasing (field)
  • Default Aliasing für die Kollection
  • Das Attribute Aliasing
  • Das Package Aliasing
das Pseudonym class
ClassAliasingExample.java
package org.o7planning.xstreamtutorial;

import org.o7planning.xstreamtutorial.beans.Company;

import com.thoughtworks.xstream.XStream;

public class ClassAliasingExample {

   public static void main(String[] args) {
       
       Company company = DataDAO.createCompany();
       
       XStream xs = new XStream();
       
       xs.alias("company", Company.class);
       
       // JAVA OBJECT --> XML
       String xml = xs.toXML(company);
       
       System.out.println(xml);
   }
   
}
Starten Sie das Beispiel
<company>
 <id>111</id>
 <name>Microsoft</name>
 <websites>
   <string>http://microsoft.com</string>
   <string>http://msn.com</string>
   <string>http://hotmail.com</string>
 </websites>
 <address>
   <street>1 Microsoft Way</street>
   <city>Redmond</city>
 </address>
</company
Das Pseudonym Feld (field)
FieldAliasingExample.java
package org.o7planning.xstreamtutorial;

import org.o7planning.xstreamtutorial.beans.Company;

import com.thoughtworks.xstream.XStream;

public class FieldAliasingExample {

   public static void main(String[] args) {
       
       Company company = DataDAO.createCompany();
       
       XStream xstream = new XStream();
       
       // Class aliasing.
       xstream.alias("company", Company.class);
       
       // Field aliasing.
       // aliasField(String alias, Class definedIn, String fieldName).
       xstream.aliasField("companyName", Company.class, "name");
       xstream.aliasField("companyId", Company.class, "id");
       
       // JAVA OBJECT --> XML
       String xml = xstream.toXML(company);
       
       System.out.println(xml);
   }
   
}
Starten Sie das Beispiel
<company>
  <companyId>111</companyId>
  <companyName>Microsoft</companyName>
  <websites>
    <string>http://microsoft.com</string>
    <string>http://msn.com</string>
    <string>http://hotmail.com</string>
  </websites>
  <address>
    <street>1 Microsoft Way</street>
    <city>Redmond</city>
  </address>
</company>
Das implizite Kollektion Pseudonym
Normalerweise wird eine Kollection (Array/Collections) im Java bei der Umwandlung zum XML in einen Tag eingepackt. Sie können das Defaul Aliasing für die Kollection zur Beseitigung dieses Tag
ImplicitCollectionsAliasingExample.java
package org.o7planning.xstreamtutorial;

import org.o7planning.xstreamtutorial.beans.Company;

import com.thoughtworks.xstream.XStream;

public class ImplicitCollectionsAliasingExample {

   public static void main(String[] args) {
       
       Company company = DataDAO.createCompany();
       
       XStream xstream = new XStream();
       
       // Class aliasing.
       xstream.alias("company", Company.class);
       
       
       // addImplicitArray(Class ownerType, String fieldName).
       xstream.addImplicitArray(Company.class, "websites", "website");
       
       // JAVA OBJECT --> XML
       String xml = xstream.toXML(company);
       
       System.out.println(xml);

   }

}
Starten Sie das Beispiel
<company>
  <id>111</id>
  <name>Microsoft</name>
  <website>http://microsoft.com</website>
  <website>http://msn.com</website>
  <website>http://hotmail.com</website>
  <address>
    <street>1 Microsoft Way</street>
    <city>Redmond</city>
  </address>
</company>
Das Pseudonym Attribut
AttributeAliasingExample.java
package org.o7planning.xstreamtutorial;

import org.o7planning.xstreamtutorial.beans.Company;

import com.thoughtworks.xstream.XStream;

public class AttributeAliasingExample {

   public static void main(String[] args) {
       
       Company company = DataDAO.createCompany();
       
       XStream xstream = new XStream();
       
       // Class aliasing.
       xstream.alias("company", Company.class);
       
       
       // useAttributeFor(Class definedIn, String fieldName).
       xstream.useAttributeFor(Company.class, "id");        
       
       xstream.useAttributeFor(Company.class, "name");
       xstream.aliasAttribute("companyName", "name");
       
       // JAVA OBJECT --> XML
       String xml = xstream.toXML(company);
       
       System.out.println(xml);

   }

}
Das Beispiel durchführen
<company id="111" companyName="Microsoft">
  <websites>
    <string>http://microsoft.com</string>
    <string>http://msn.com</string>
    <string>http://hotmail.com</string>
  </websites>
  <address>
    <street>1 Microsoft Way</street>
    <city>Redmond</city>
  </address>
</company>
Das Pseudonym Package
PackageAliasingExample.java
package org.o7planning.xstreamtutorial;

import org.o7planning.xstreamtutorial.beans.Address;
import org.o7planning.xstreamtutorial.beans.Company;

import com.thoughtworks.xstream.XStream;

public class PackageAliasingExample {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        
        Company company = DataDAO.createCompany();
        
        XStream xstream = new XStream();  
        
        String packgeName=  Address.class.getPackage().getName();
        
        // aliasPackage(String name, String pkgName).
        xstream.aliasPackage("com.newcompany", packgeName);          
        
        
        
        // JAVA OBJECT --> XML
        String xml = xstream.toXML(company);
        
        System.out.println(xml);

    }

}
Das Beispiel durchführen
<com.newcompany.Company>
  <id>111</id>
  <name>Microsoft</name>
  <websites>
    <string>http://microsoft.com</string>
    <string>http://msn.com</string>
    <string>http://hotmail.com</string>
  </websites>
  <address>
    <street>1 Microsoft Way</street>
    <city>Redmond</city>
  </address>
</com.newcompany.Company>

6. XStream Annotation

Mit XStream können Sie die Kode benutzen um das aus dem Java Objekt erstellte XML anzupassen. Allerdings können Sie die Annotation verwenden um XStream die Erstellungsweise der XML aus dem Java Objekt zu informieren.

Folgend sind sie die Liste von Annotation
  • @XStreamAlias
  • @XStreamAsAttribute
  • @XStreamImplicit
  • @XStreamOmitField
Using Code
Using Annotation
xs.alias("dept", Department.class);
@XStreamAlias("dept")
public class Department {

}
xs.aliasField("no", Department.class, "deptNo");
@XStreamAlias("no")
private int deptNo;
xs.useAttributeFor(Department.class, "deptNo")
@XStreamAsAttribute
private int deptNo;
xs.omitField(Employee.class, "bonus");
@XStreamOmitField
private float bonus;
xs.addImplicitCollection(Department.class, "employees");
@XStreamImplicit
private List<Employee> employees;
Department.java
package org.o7planning.xstreamtutorial.beans;

import java.util.List;

import com.thoughtworks.xstream.annotations.XStreamAlias;
import com.thoughtworks.xstream.annotations.XStreamAsAttribute;
import com.thoughtworks.xstream.annotations.XStreamImplicit;

@XStreamAlias("dept")
public class Department {

  @XStreamAlias("no")
  @XStreamAsAttribute
  private int deptNo;

  @XStreamAlias("name")
  private String deptName;

  @XStreamImplicit
  private List<Employee> employees;

  public int getDeptNo() {
      return deptNo;
  }

  public void setDeptNo(int deptNo) {
      this.deptNo = deptNo;
  }

  public String getDeptName() {
      return deptName;
  }

  public void setDeptName(String deptName) {
      this.deptName = deptName;
  }

  public List<Employee> getEmployees() {
      return employees;
  }

  public void setEmployees(List<Employee> employees) {
      this.employees = employees;
  }

}
Employee.java
package org.o7planning.xstreamtutorial.beans;

import com.thoughtworks.xstream.annotations.XStreamAlias;

import com.thoughtworks.xstream.annotations.XStreamOmitField;

@XStreamAlias("emp")
public class Employee {

    @XStreamAlias("no")
    @XStreamAsAttribute
    private int empNo;
    private String empName;

    private float salary;

    // Ignore this field.
    @XStreamOmitField
    private float bonus;

    public Employee(int empNo, String empName, float salary) {
        this.empNo = empNo;
        this.empName = empName;
        this.salary = salary;
    }

    public int getEmpNo() {
        return empNo;
    }

    public void setEmpNo(int empNo) {
        this.empNo = empNo;
    }

    public String getEmpName() {
        return empName;
    }

    public void setEmpName(String empName) {
        this.empName = empName;
    }

    public float getSalary() {
        return salary;
    }

    public void setSalary(float salary) {
        this.salary = salary;
    }

    public float getBonus() {
        return bonus;
    }

    public void setBonus(float bonus) {
        this.bonus = bonus;
    }

}

import com.thoughtworks.xstream.XStream;

public class XStreamAnnotationExample {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Department dept = createDepartment();

        XStream xstream = new XStream();
        
        // Using annotations in class Department
        xstream.processAnnotations(Department.class);
        
        // Using annotations in class Employee
        xstream.processAnnotations(Employee.class);
        
        String xml = xstream.toXML(dept);
        
        System.out.println(xml);
    }

    public static Department createDepartment() {
        Department dept = new Department();
        dept.setDeptNo(10);
        dept.setDeptName("ACCOUNTING");

        Employee king = new Employee(7839, "KING", 5000f);
        Employee clark = new Employee(7839, "CLARK", 2450f);
        Employee miller = new Employee(7839, "MILLER", 1300f);

        List<Employee> list = new ArrayList<Employee>();

    <salary>1300.0</salary>
  </emp>
</dept>

7. XStream Converter

XStream Converter ist ein wichtigste Teil im der XStream Bibliothek. Er ist API zum Änderung eines Java Objekt zu XML und umgekehrt. Sie können einen Converter selbst erstellen um die Umsetzung zwischen Java und XML anzupassen
