[Digester] setting properties from the app's runtime

[Timo Boewing]

Hello all,

I am working with Digester since some time now and am very happy with
it; however, I have one major problem with it: whenever I let Digester
create objects using addObjectCreate(), i want to set a property on this
instance before calls of addSetProperties() or so are made. This
property is not from the XML but from the app's runtime, say, a global
variable. So, what I want to do is like this:

cfg.addObjectCreate(
        "*/catalogues/catalogue",
        Question.class.getCanonicalName(),
        "class"
);

// this is my invented "callMethod()"...
cfg.callMethod(
        "*/catalogues/catalogue",
        "setContainer",
        1
        this.container
);
cfg.callMethodParam(
        "*/catalogues/catalogue",
        0,
        this.container
);


cfg.addSetProperties("*/catalogues/catalogue");

So, besides the stuff done by addSetProperties() and addCallMethod() and
that, I just want to call a method (set a property) of the new instance
whose parameter is an object from the calling app.
What have I missed?
