Thanks, I have found a library called jRecordBind [1] that is very
similar to JAXB. I think it's going to do what I need, although I
still have a few things to work out, like if I can use Enums or not.

Hi Q,
I've haven't tried this one but it might be useful:
http://flatpack.sourceforge.net
I've have used the next one but I don't think it does fixed width or
multiline but it does CSV very well: (note its a commercial product)

Haven't used this one in production yet but was also okay, although
not sure about multiline and fixed width again:

This is a bit off topic, but the Java foo is strong here so I

good place to ask.
I am in the unfortunately position of having to write a parser for
a flat
fixed width ascii file format that uses a cobol style multi-record
format
where one of the leading fields defines the actual record type, which
determines how you need to parse the rest of the string.
Can anyone recommend a java library to help do this sort of data
processing
that might ease my pain.
Thanks.
