To get a grasp of what can be done I suggest you take a look at commons-digester (http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/digester/). It is not very performant, but I think it gives you a good insight in possible ways of "connecting" java to xml.

you may want to search under XML Data Binding. There is so much out there.

For example, this page gives some benchmarks of a few:

Hi,

Depending on if your looking for performance, ease of use or somewhere in the midle a lot of frameworks exist for xml to java to xml mapping.

Per raw performance we have been using JibX a lot which per speed is a great mapping framework. However it does depend on bytecode modification...
