I am a newbie to XML, but have been coding for several years so just kind of need a pointer of where to get started.

I have a binary data file (eventually several data files) and an XML schema describing the data. I would like to parse the binary data and translate it into XML (and eventually back to binary) using the schema. I could just do all this with a hand coded parser, but since the schema is likely to change over time I it would be much better for ease and maintainability to use the schema to generate a parser - assuming that there is a way to do this.

Any pointers in the right starting direction or tools would be greatly appreciated.

Oh, and the eventual project language is java.
