Boris Kolpackov put together a full introduction to XML Data Binding in C++: "Anyone who has had to handle a large XML vocabulary using DOM or SAX can attest that the task is hardly enjoyable.

An application developer often has to write a substantial amount of bridging code that identifies and transforms pieces of information encoded in XML to a representation more suitable for consumption by the application
