Definitions for "Data binding"
Method of binding user interface elements to a data source.
In JAXB, the process of using a JAXB compiler to generate Java classes based on an input schema, such that the schema-derived classes accurately represent the constraints of the source schema. The process of XML data binding can be divided into five general steps: Generate Java classes from XML schemas (and optionally a set of binding declarations). Create an application that uses the schema-derived classes generated in Step 1. Unmarshal XML documents into your application and perform processing as needed. Validate the Java representation of the XML data. Marshal the resulting output to new XML documents. Back
A notification mechanism that links control properties through the container to a data source, such as a database field.
