Desmond,

It does write empty elements under certain conditions.Since that looks
very sloppy, I was planning on elemenating all empty elements, since
they don't have any use.
Do you have any specific reasons why you want to be able to print empty
elements ?

one example i can think of is a <load-on-startup/> element of a war deployment descriptor.

i was thinking about adding a property to BeanWriter which would allow empty element writing to be turned off. maybe this property should default to not writing since that seems likely to be the most common setting.

maybe later, we could add more finely grained control by add attribute which would override this setting to the .betwixt file.

comments?
