33 * Enable synchronization between XML infoset nodes and JAXB objects
34 * representing same XML document.
35 *
36 * <p>
37 * An instance of this class maintains the association between XML nodes of
38 * an infoset preserving view and a JAXB representation of an XML document.
39 * Navigation between the two views is provided by the methods
40 * {@link #getXMLNode(Object)} and {@link #getJAXBNode(Object)}.
41 *
42 * <p>
43 * Modifications can be made to either the infoset preserving view or the
44 * JAXB representation of the document while the other view remains
45 * unmodified. The binder is able to synchronize the changes made in the
46 * modified view back into the other view using the appropriate
47 * Binder update methods, {@link #updateXML(Object, Object)} or
48 * {@link #updateJAXB(Object)}.
49 *
50 * <p>
51 * A typical usage scenario is the following:
52 * <ul>
53 * <li>load XML document into an XML infoset representation</li>
54 * <li>{@link #unmarshal(Object)} XML infoset view to JAXB view.
55 * (Note to conserve resources, it is possible to only unmarshal a
56 * subtree of the XML infoset view to the JAXB view.)</li>
57 * <li>application access/updates JAXB view of XML document.</li>
58 * <li>{@link #updateXML(Object)} synchronizes modifications to JAXB view
59 * back into the XML infoset view. Update operation preserves as
60 * much of original XML infoset as possible (i.e. comments, PI, ...)</li>
61 * </ul>
62 *
63 * <p>
64 * A Binder instance is created using the factory method
65 * {@link JAXBContext#createBinder()} or {@link JAXBContext#createBinder(Class)}.
66 *
67 * <p>
68 * The template parameter, <code>XmlNode</code>, is the
69 * root interface/class for the XML infoset preserving representation.
70 * A Binder implementation is required to minimally support
71 * an <code>XmlNode</code> value of <code>org.w3c.dom.Node.class</code>.
72 * A Binder implementation can support alternative XML infoset
73 * preserving representations.
