CAM Editor

The tool provides an integrated environment for creating, editing, and validating XML, JSON, Hibernate, and SQL data structures. It offers a visual WYSIWYG designer where users can drag and drop dictionary components, use rule‑entry wizards, and import existing schemas for analysis and refactoring. The editor supports generation of XSD schemas in multiple modes, JAXB bindings, and can produce HTML documentation, spreadsheets, and Mindmap or UML models.

It is aimed at developers and data architects who need to build and deploy data‑driven applications quickly, especially those working with standards such as NIEM, OASIS, or enterprise‑level exchange formats. The platform includes a Java‑based validation engine that runs XMLUnit and Schematron tests, supports XPath business rules, and can create realistic XML test instances using live SQL data.

Distinctive features include canonical component dictionaries derived from schema sets, databases, or spreadsheets; automatic mapping between XML/JSON and relational stores; and generation of JAX‑WS validation services. The software runs on macOS and is released as a stable, open‑source project.
