title: Java JAXB Pros/Cons and Documentation
body: <p>It's been a while since I used Java in anger so please forgive me if this is silly.</p>
  
  <p>I have just got started on a Java project where we are using JAXB to de-serializing an incoming XML string (from Jetty Server). The project is only using JAXB for this situation.</p>
  
  <p>What are the alternatives to JAXB?<br>
  What are pros/cons of JAXB to these alternatives<br></p>
  
  <p>I have done some googling and found lots of reference material, but is there a definitive source that is the goto place for JAXB questions or do people just see what people are doing and interpret from there.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks.</p>
