如何将XML转换为java.util.Map,反之亦然

我正在搜索一个轻量级API(最好是单个类)来转换

Map<String,String> map = new HashMap<String,String();

到xml，反之亦然，将XML转换回Map。

例：

Map<String,String();
map.put("name","chris");
map.put("island","faranga");

MagicAPI.toXML(map,"root");

结果：

<root>
  <name>chris</chris>
  <island>faranga</island>
</root>

然后回来：

Map<String,String> map = MagicAPI.fromXML("...");

我不想使用JAXB或JSON conversion API.它不必照顾嵌套地图或属性或任何其他，只是那个简单的情况。
有什么建议么？

编辑：我创建了一个工作副本&粘贴样品。感谢fvu和Michal Bernhard。

Download latest XStream framework，’core only’就够了。

Map<String,Object> map = new HashMap<String,Object>();
map.put("name","faranga");

// convert to XML
XStream xStream = new XStream(new DomDriver());
xStream.alias("map",java.util.Map.class);
String xml = xStream.toXML(map);

// from XML,convert back to map
Map<String,Object> map2 = (Map<String,Object>) xStream.fromXML(xml);

不需要转换器或任何其他。只是xstream-x.y.z.jar就够了。

XStream！

更新：我在注释中添加了请求的解组件。
