Java SerializationContext

SerializationContext Class

The SerializationContext class controls the way in which XML is serialized and de-serialized. It allows aspects of the validation to be changed, and the contents of the generated XML to be controlled.
If you not explicitly create an SerializationContext object and pass it to the toXML and fromXml functions, then a static instance of a SerializationContext is used (accessible via SerializationContext.Default).
