XStream - Aliasing de pacote

O aliasing de pacote é usado para criar um alias de um nome totalmente qualificado de uma classe em XML para um novo nome qualificado. Vamos modificar nosso exemplo novamente e alterar o código a seguir.

xstream.alias("student", Student.class);
xstream.alias("note", Note.class);

O código acima é alterado da seguinte forma -

xstream.aliasPackage("my.company.xstream", "com.tutorialspoint.xstream");

Vamos testar a serialização do objeto acima usando XStream.

Crie um arquivo de classe java chamado XStreamTester em C:\>XStream_WORKSPACE\com\tutorialspoint\xstream.

Arquivo: XStreamTester.java

}

Verifique o resultado

Compile as classes usando javac compilador da seguinte forma -

C:\XStream_WORKSPACE\com\tutorialspoint\xstream>javac XStreamTester.java

Agora execute o XStreamTester para ver o resultado -

C:\XStream_WORKSPACE\com\tutorialspoint\xstream>java XStreamTester

Verifique a saída da seguinte forma -

<?xml version = "1.0" encoding = "UTF-8"?>
<student name = "Mahesh">
   <note>
      <title>first</title>
      <description>My first assignment.</description>
   </note>
   
   <note>
      <title>second</title>
      <description>My Second assignment.</description>
   </note>
</student>
