How to get streamed in XML into DAL to parse 1

[zooxmusic]

Hi all,
I am very much still a novice at this stuff but I am learning more and more each day. I now understand (I think!) how a DAL works as far as Sql goes but I am now in the realm of xml. I can understand it if there is a static xml file but my problem is this.

My controller receives an xml document
Parse that document into domain object
Add domain object to db

I have the writing stuff done through DAOFactories and whatnut and understand how to do it because there is a datastore variable I get within the DAOSql file's but this xml thing has me upside down. There is no where to go get the xml from within the DAOXml file unless maybe I write it to disk but that seems silly. I have it in memory and don't need it written at all. It is streamed into me from the highest level. I am sure this is something simple I am just missing but never the less I am missing it. Could someone shed some light on how they would do this?

Ok,So in that example I sent you would you put another layer ontop of the DAOFactory that is returned? Because to me that seems to do the same thing as a repository. Hiding away where and how it is stored.
