XStream 去除生成的XML节点的class="list"

使用XStream转换BEAN到XML得时候，由于bean里面有个Collection tasks属性，结果解析出来的节点里面有class="list"属性：<tasks class="list">，很不好看，后来看到一封mail后知道，原来属性Collection tasks初始化成了ArrayList，XStream发现定义的类型和初始化类型不一样就会增加class="list"，属性；只要把tasks改成ArrayList tasks就可以了，class="list"不再出现。以下是原文：

另一种方式：

1. public class XMLUtil {  
2.     private static final XStream xStream = new XStream();  
3.   
4.     // 将对象转为XML字符串  
5.     public static <T> String toXML(T obj) {  
6.         Class<?> cls = obj.getClass();  
7.         xStream.alias(cls.getSimpleName().toLowerCase(), cls);  
8.         [color=red]xStream.aliasSystemAttribute(null, "class"); // 去掉 class 属性[/color]  
9.         return xStream.toXML(obj);  
10.     }  
11.   
12.     // 将XML字符串转为对象  
13.     @SuppressWarnings({"unchecked"})  
14.     public static <T> T fromXML(String xml) {  
15.         return (T) xStream.fromXML(xml);  
16.     }  
17. }
