Interface JaxBContextProvider

All Known Implementing Classes:

DefaultJaxBContextProvider

public interface JaxBContextProvider

Provider for the Marshallers and Unmarshallers the DomXmlDataFormat uses to map Java objects to XML and vice versa. Implementations typically manage a JAXBContext. The JAXBContext caches information about the types it is capable of processing. Since the context is expensive to create, it is useful to cache it. Different applications may require different caching strategies.
