Copy this code and paste it in your HTML

import javax.xml.bind.annotation.* 
import javax.xml.bind.JAXB
 
@XmlRootElement 
@XmlAccessorType(XmlAccessType.FIELD) // without this annotation you'll see IllegalAnnotationException when try to marshall
public class Band {
	private String name
	private int establishedYear
 
	Band() {} // no-argument constaructor is required for POGO
 
	Band(String n, int e) {
		name = n
		establishedYear = e
	}
 
	String toString() {
		"$name founded in $establishedYear"
	}	
}
 
f = new File('pogo.xml')
// let's save
JAXB.marshal(new Band('The Little Willies', 2003), f)
// and then load
assert JAXB.unmarshal(f, Band.class).establishedYear == 2003
