Marshal Java object to xml :

In the following example , we marshal the java object to XML and print it in to console on it .

Code:: import java.io.FileOutputStream; import javax.xml.bind.JAXBContext; import javax.xml.bind.Marshaller; public class ObjectToXml { public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception { JAXBContext contextObj = JAXBContext.newInstance(Employee.class); Marshaller marshallerObj = contextObj.createMarshaller(); marshallerObj.setProperty(Marshaller.JAXB_FORMATTED_OUTPUT, true); Student myStudent = new Student(); myStudent.setGender("M"); myStudent.setName("Amar"); myStudent.setAge(20); marshallerObj .marshal(myStudent, System.out); } }

Code:: import javax.xml.bind.annotation.XmlRootElement; @XmlRootElement class Student{ private String gender; private String name; private int age; public String getGender() { return gender; } public void setGender(String gender) { this.gender= gender; } public String getName() { return name; } public void setName(String name) { this.name = name; } public int getAge() { return age; } public void setAge(int age) { this.age= age; } }

Output XML file example :

Code:: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?> <student> <gender>M</gender> <name>Amar</name> <age>20</age> </student>
