08/25/2020, 7:03 PMHey guys, what's your preferred way to read xml files? We're currently using jackson, but it has a nasty bug with empty lists (https://github.com/FasterXML/jackson-dataformat-xml/issues/124).
Unfortunately we don't have access to the output parameters of the xml, so we gotta find something else. Any recommendations?
