How to export EclipseLink objects to XML

is there an easy approach to store my model, which I use with EclipseLink, in XML files?

I want to implement an export functionality in my progr开发者_如何学运维am and I was wondering if this can be done with eclipselink or with any other framework.

Thanks

Take a look at the EclipseLink MOXy component ( https://wiki.eclipse.org/EclipseLink/FAQ/MOXy ). This will easily allow you to map your existing POJO's to XML.

Depending on the complexity of your data model, using JAXB should be a relatively easy way to marshal (export) your objects to XML. You will have to annotate your entities with @XmlRootElement or @XmlType and your fields with @XmlElement or @XmlAttribute.
