Name : jdom2
Product : Fedora 35
Version : 2.0.6
Release : 24.fc35
URL :   http://www.jdom.org/
Summary : Java manipulation of XML made easy
Description :
JDOM is a Java-oriented object model which models XML documents.
It provides a Java-centric means of generating and manipulating
XML documents. While JDOM inter-operates well with existing
standards such as the Simple API for XML (SAX) and the Document
Object Model (DOM), it is not an abstraction layer or
enhancement to those APIs. Rather, it seeks to provide a robust,
light-weight means of reading and writing XML data without the
complex and memory-consumptive options that current API
offerings provide.
