Hi,

I'm new to using NetBeans. I am able to get a WebApplication up and running using a sample database and produce XML from it (RESTful web service).

Now I'm looking to use an XML instead of the database. Is there a simple way of doing this? For the regular database I just right clicked
-project name -> New -> RESTful web serice from Entity Class
or
-project name -> New -> Entity Class from database.

Neither option allow for using an XML file.

Any help appreciated.
thanks.

You probably want to look into JAX-B for marshalling and unmarshalling XML. You can create an XSD to describe your data and generate classes or you can annotate your entities yourself.
