After executing XmlEncodeToFile, the "mybean.xml" file is present at the root level of my project.

If we examine the "mybean.xml" file, we can see that it contains the data from the MyBean object.

mybean.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> 
<java version="1.5.0_09" class="java.beans.XMLDecoder"> 
 <object class="example.MyBean"> 
  <void property="myBoolean"> 
   <boolean>true</boolean> 
  </void> 
  <void property="myString"> 
   <string>xml is cool</string> 
  </void> 
  <void property="myVector"> 
   <object class="java.util.Vector"> 
    <void method="add"> 
     <string>one</string> 
    </void> 
    <void method="add"> 
     <string>two</string> 
    </void> 
    <void method="add"> 
     <string>three</string> 
    </void> 
   </object> 
  </void> 
 </object> 
</java> 

In another tutorial, we'll see how to read data back from the XMLW file into a JavaBeanW object. In another tutorial, we can see how to convert the JavaBean to a String rather than to a File.
