Creating a XBRL document in Java?

Question

I just started with XBRL. What Java lib(s) do you use for creating XBRL documents?

I find it hard to find "opensource" java libs for XBRL creation/manipulation.

Answer 1

I use JAXB, and seem to work fine. I create the java code with jaxb ref implementation and use it through the factories...

Answer 2

@edbras: Check out Arelle.org. It's not Java, but it's free and it is python, and some java, which should be close enough. There are other commercial options if you are interested.
