I actually am ok with hiding the elements of the list, but I just was giving a simple example. However I'm having some trouble getting the dynamic handler to be used. From the user guide I got that you can use this on collections, and that I could specify whatever I wanted, however, it appears that registering these only works on maps.
If I have the property handler I gave before (the getProperty method was a little wrong in the method it called on Bar, but anyway), and I do: JXPathIntrospector.registerDynamicClass(Bar.class, MyHandler.class); My handler is only used if Bar doesn't extend any collection, or extends a Map collection. If Bar extends say ArrayList, my dynamic handler isn't used, however, if Bar extends HashMap it is used. Can anyone provide some guidance on this? Are handlers only useful on map collections (which seems like a bug not a feature) or do I need to register using some other method / type of handler?
