Reusable and late addition enabled XML data binding

An article of manufacture including a non-transitory computer readable storage medium to tangibly store instructions, which when executed by a computer, cause the computer to:

• receive an element class that is created for a non-atomic class from a program code used for creating objects to be serialized into an XML document, the element class comprising:
• a first constructor;
• a decomposer that returns data extracted from an object of the created objects in the program code, for an entity to aid in serialization, wherein the object is of type non-atomic class;
• a composer that extracts value of the entity and creates a new instance of the non-atomic class using the extracted value to aid in de-serialization;
• and
• wherein the element class extends a super element class, and wherein the super element class comprises serializing and de-serializing code;
• receive an attribute class that is created for an atomic class, wherein the non-atomic class refers to the atomic class, and wherein the attribute class comprises a second constructor, a serializer, and a de-serializer;
• and
• generate the XML document using the element class, the attribute class, and
• serializing code in the super element class, wherein the serializing code is executed when the decomposer and the serializer are invoked.

A computer system for Extensible Markup Language (XML) data binding, comprising:

• a computer memory to store program code;
• and
• a processor to execute the program code to:
• receive an element class that is created for a non-atomic class from a program code used for creating objects to be serialized into an XML document, the element class comprising:
• a first constructor;
• a decomposer that returns data extracted from an object of the created objects in the program code, for an entity to aid in serialization, wherein the object is of type non-atomic class;
• a composer that extracts value of the entity and creates a new instance of the non-atomic class using the extracted value to aid in de-serialization;
• and
• wherein the element class extends a super element class, and wherein the super element class comprises serializing and de-serializing code;
• receive an attribute class that is created for an atomic class, wherein the non-atomic class refers to the atomic class, and wherein the attribute class comprises a second constructor, a serializer, and a de-serializer;
• and
• generate the XML document using the element class, the attribute class, and serializing code in the super element class, wherein the serializing code is executed when the decomposer and the serializer are invoked.
