[jdom-interest] creating xml file fromjava object?

[Corcos Igal]

I have a similar request...

Essentially I have to parse an XML file, and then generate a new one based
on the requests and the values I received in the first one.
i.e. XML Requests -> process requests -> XML Response

Can anyone suggest an approach to do this?  Should the XML requests be
transformed into java objects first? Does anyone know of any examples of
this type of processing?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Can someone point me to the example that will show me how to take one xml
file and generate another or how to store a java object of as an xml file?

thanks
Ross
