No, they have stayed fairly consistent since Android 1.0 last fall. You have three XML parsing options (DOM, SAX, and XmlPullParser) but no XML encoding options. JSON (org.json.*) lets you generate and parse. However, neither work directly with POJOs, any more than they do outside of Android. In either case, you need to serialize/deserialize your POJOs to/from XML or JSON constructs. You, of course, are not limited to these. For example, I've used Thrift's serialize/deserialize code, even if I skipped their RPC layer in favor of simpler HTTP REST-ish operations. You have not inquired about HTTP, but there is the standard HttpUrlConnection, along with Apache's HTTPClient. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://twitter.com/commonsguy Warescription: Three Android Books, Plus Updates, $35/Year --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
