<PRE>

  <IMG SRC="../../../resources/inherit.gif" ALT="extended by "><B>com.thoughtworks.xstream.XStream</B>

<DT><PRE>public class <B>XStream</B><DT>extends <A HREF="http://download.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/lang/Object.html?is-external=true" title="class or interface in java.lang">Object</A></DL>
</PRE>

<P>
Simple facade to XStream library, a Java-XML serialization tool. <p/>
 <p>
 <hr>
 <b>Example</b><blockquote>

 <pre>
 XStream xstream = new XStream();
 String xml = xstream.toXML(myObject); // serialize to XML
 Object myObject2 = xstream.fromXML(xml); // deserialize from XML
 </pre>

 </blockquote>
 <hr>
 <p/>
 <h3>Aliasing classes</h3>
 <p/>
 <p>
 To create shorter XML, you can specify aliases for classes using the <code>alias()</code>
 method. For example, you can shorten all occurrences of element
 <code>&lt;com.blah.MyThing&gt;</code> to <code>&lt;my-thing&gt;</code> by registering an
 alias for the class.
 <p>
 <hr>
 <blockquote>

 <pre>
 xstream.alias(&quot;my-thing&quot;, MyThing.class);
 </pre>

 </blockquote>
 <hr>
 <p/>
 <h3>Converters</h3>
 <p/>
 <p>
 XStream contains a map of <A HREF="../../../com/thoughtworks/xstream/converters/Converter.html" title="interface in com.thoughtworks.xstream.converters"><CODE>Converter</CODE></A> instances, each
 of which acts as a strategy for converting a particular type of class to XML and back again. Out
 of the box, XStream contains converters for most basic types (String, Date, int, boolean, etc)
 and collections (Map, List, Set, Properties, etc). For other objects reflection is used to
 serialize each field recursively.
 </p>
 <p/>
 <p>
 Extra converters can be registered using the <code>registerConverter()</code> method. Some
 non-standard converters are supplied in the <A HREF="../../../com/thoughtworks/xstream/converters/extended/package-summary.html"><CODE>com.thoughtworks.xstream.converters.extended</CODE></A>
 package and you can create your own by implementing the
 <A HREF="../../../com/thoughtworks/xstream/converters/Converter.html" title="interface in com.thoughtworks.xstream.converters"><CODE>Converter</CODE></A> interface.
 </p>
 <p/>
 <p>
 <hr>
 <b>Example</b><blockquote>

 <pre>
 xstream.registerConverter(new SqlTimestampConverter());
 xstream.registerConverter(new DynamicProxyConverter());
 </pre>

 </blockquote>
 <hr>
 <p>
 The converters can be registered with an explicit priority. By default they are registered with 
 XStream.PRIORITY_NORMAL. Converters of same priority will be used in the reverse sequence
 they have been registered. The default converter, i.e. the converter which will be used if
 no other registered converter is suitable, can be registered with priority
 XStream.PRIORITY_VERY_LOW. XStream uses by default the
 <A HREF="../../../com/thoughtworks/xstream/converters/reflection/ReflectionConverter.html" title="class in com.thoughtworks.xstream.converters.reflection"><CODE>ReflectionConverter</CODE></A> as the fallback
 converter.
 </p>
 <p/>
 <p>
 <hr>
 <b>Example</b><blockquote>

 <pre>
 xstream.registerConverter(new CustomDefaultConverter(), XStream.PRIORITY_VERY_LOW);
 </pre>

 </blockquote>
 <hr>
 <p/>
 <h3>Object graphs</h3>
 <p/>
 <p>
 XStream has support for object graphs; a deserialized object graph will keep references intact,
 including circular references.
 </p>
 <p/>
 <p>
 XStream can signify references in XML using either relative/absolute XPath or IDs. The mode can be changed using
 <code>setMode()</code>:
 </p>
 <p/>
 <table border='1'>
 <tr>
 <td><code>xstream.setMode(XStream.XPATH_RELATIVE_REFERENCES);</code></td>
 <td><i>(Default)</i> Uses XPath relative references to signify duplicate references. This produces XML
 with the least clutter.</td>
 </tr>
 <tr>
 <td><code>xstream.setMode(XStream.XPATH_ABSOLUTE_REFERENCES);</code></td>
 <td>Uses XPath absolute references to signify duplicate
 references. This produces XML with the least clutter.</td>
 </tr>
 <tr>
 <td><code>xstream.setMode(XStream.SINGLE_NODE_XPATH_RELATIVE_REFERENCES);</code></td>
 <td>Uses XPath relative references to signify duplicate references. The XPath expression ensures that
 a single node only is selected always.</td>
 </tr>
 <tr>
 <td><code>xstream.setMode(XStream.SINGLE_NODE_XPATH_ABSOLUTE_REFERENCES);</code></td>
 <td>Uses XPath absolute references to signify duplicate references.  The XPath expression ensures that
 a single node only is selected always.</td>
 </tr>
 <tr>
 <td><code>xstream.setMode(XStream.ID_REFERENCES);</code></td>
 <td>Uses ID references to signify duplicate references. In some scenarios, such as when using
 hand-written XML, this is easier to work with.</td>
 </tr>
 <tr>
 <td><code>xstream.setMode(XStream.NO_REFERENCES);</code></td>
 <td>This disables object graph support and treats the object structure like a tree. Duplicate
 references are treated as two separate objects and circular references cause an exception. This
 is slightly faster and uses less memory than the other two modes.</td>
 </tr>
 </table>
 <h3>Thread safety</h3>
 <p>
 The XStream instance is thread-safe. That is, once the XStream instance has been created and
 configured, it may be shared across multiple threads allowing objects to be
 serialized/deserialized concurrently. <em>Note, that this only applies if annotations are not 
 auto-detected on -the-fly.</em>
 </p>
 <h3>Implicit collections</h3>
 <p/>
 <p>
 To avoid the need for special tags for collections, you can define implicit collections using one
 of the <code>addImplicitCollection</code> methods.
