You can construct Java classes from descriptions in RELAX.  Codes for 
converting from XML documents to Java objects (and vice versa) also 
generated.  Codes for some useful design patterns are also generated.

For example, given a relax module at

	http://www.asahi-net.or.jp/~dp8t-asm/java/articles/Extreme2000/ohp_s4_ss2.html

we can construct Java classes

More about this, see
