I'm currently dealing with customs messages Beans in Java. After filling in the Beans with different values, I want to produce an EDIFACT CUSDEC message corresponding to each message.

For each attribute of a message Bean, I have the information to put the attribute in the right place in EDIFACT CUSEDC format.

Thus, I am looking for a free tool (a Java API) which could ideally convert my full-filled Bean into an EDIFACT CUSDEC message.

I found a commercial solution (not free) there :

And a quick tutorial here :

But ... unfortunately it is not free..

Thanks in advance for your help!

You might want to have a closer look at Smooks Website

It offers various mappings, e.g.:

Java -> EDI
EDI -> Java
XML -> Java
Java -> XML
...

For the different UN/EDIFACT directories it offers mapping functionality out of the box. I suggest that you examine the examples and the documentation on the Smooks website.

try http://bots.sourceforge.net it already has a mapping engine.

Just to note that the only solution I found is to implement my own mapping engine.

This is made by having :

• an xml representation of an edifact message
• an XPath mapping path attached to each of the bean attributes and mapping them to the xml representation of EDIFACT
