We'd like to generate xml using xstream implemented with java. We'd then like to consume that xml in a .net application and have it deserialized into c# classes.
has anyone had success in doing this? is there a framework available on the C# side that will make it easier and more robust than something we'd have to roll-up?
You don't need a special framework. You can do it with the XmlSerialization namespace that is builtin to .NET.
