Deprecated. XML Maps are deprecated as of the WebLogic Platform 8.1 release. For new code, use XQuery maps. For more information, see Introduction to XQuery Maps.

Binding to Java Data Members

You can use the . (dot) operator to assign the values of Java data members to XML, and vice versa. In other words, in addition to using the . operator for public data members, XML maps enable you to use it with accessor pairs.

For each of the examples below, you can write a map that accesses the data using dot notation syntax like the following:

<book_data>
    <book_title>{Book.title}</book_title>
    <in_print>{Book.isInPrint}</in_print>
</book_data>
