Best XML/OBJ framework

[Leandro Oliveira]

Hi, I would like to know your opinion about the frameworks we have for implementing binding XML / Obj focusing on the Web Services context requirements. For example Castor is a great XML/Obj mapping framework; it's a easy start framework; but is it good tecnologi for Web Services?

My objective is study and develop SOA applications!
Thanks!

As far as Sun is concerned JAXB is the mainstream solution. Axis 2 currently has experimental support for JaxMe an open-source JAXB implementation.

We use JibX both with XFire and Axis2 and we are really happy with it

The JiBX homepage links to some interesting (if somewhat old; 2+ years) articles:

XML Binding Frameworks in the Context of Service-Oriented Architecture.
