I've scanned the dom4j documentation for an answer to this question, perhaps the easiest way to find an answer is to simply ask.
I was quite pleased to see that the new JAXM implementation is based on dom4j. I'm currently looking at working on a project where I would make use of both JAXM and JAXB (binding) to send and receive instances of class objects via HTTP. I realize that although all my work is done with Java, and RMI is certainly a possibility, I'm interested in experimenting with SOAP, and JAXB as a self-learning process. My idea is to have software that uses JAXM to send and receive SOAP messages, extract the message body, and "unmarshall" the xml using JAXB to convert it back into an instance of Java class. JAXB's unmarshalling methods require an InputStream (or XMLScanner, whatever that is) to work. So, I need to come up with a way to create an InputStream from the SOAP message body document. I was looking around for some kind of "obvious" method associated with the SOAPElement, SOAPNode, etc. classes that allow you to "get" an InputStream from say, the root node, but I didn't see one. What would be the most efficient way to pull this off in dom4j (and therefore, I assume JAXM)?
