Sorry, mentioned incorrect url for KBML. Working url for KBML is:

I was just about to point that out to you. I found the above also by googling kbml.


Any pointers on this would greatly help.

My question is, what are you trying to do with kbml? If your intention is to serialize Cocoa objects, you should read this first:

http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/Archiving/Tasks/serializing.html

The Cocoa way to serialize objects often involves implementing a category that returns the object's fields as a plist (NSDictionary). You can then serialize this to xml using code very similar to the first example on the page linked above.

Retrieving the objects is a simple matter of reading the serialized xml into a plist, and then calling your category method to instantiate your object from a plist/NSDictionary. Naturally, you will have to implement the code to convert your object to and from a NSDictionary representation, but it is generally not difficult.

If your intention is to serialize Cocoa objects so that they would be compatible with Java objects serialized with kbml, then I'm afraid you're on your own. You'd need a Cocoa class hierarchy that is identical to the Java objects you are attempting to emulate, and that is more trouble than I think it would be worth.

Hope that helps,
Jason

Hi Guys,

In my Cocoa application, i am planning to use KBML
(http://www.inria.fr/koala/kbml/). KBML is pure java application, so i
need to port it into Cocoa.

I am looking for open source KBML generators/parsers to cut my
development time. Is anybody aware of such applications?

Thanks In Advance,
