import java.beans.XMLDecoder;
import java.io.BufferedInputStream;
import java.io.FileInputStream;
import java.io.Serializable;

public class Main {
  public static void main(String[] argv) throws Exception {
    XMLDecoder decoder = new XMLDecoder(new BufferedInputStream(new FileInputStream("Bean.xml")));
    Bean bean = (Bean) decoder.readObject();
    decoder.close();
    System.out.println("ID = " + bean.getId());
  }
}
class Bean implements Serializable {
  private Long id;
  public Long getId() {
    return id;
  }
  public void setId(Long id) {
    this.id = id;
  }
}

Here is our Bean.xml persistence file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> 
<java version="1.6.0_02" class="java.beans.XMLDecoder"> 
 <object class="org.username.example.bean.BeanToXML"> 
  <void property="id"> 
   <long>1</long> 
  </void> 
 </object> 
</java>
