--------------------------------
why did not respond to this question?
> Need for public interface to check if an XmlObject is orphaned
> --------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: XMLBEANS-351
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XMLBEANS-351
> Project: XMLBeans
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: XmlObject
> Affects Versions: unspecified
> Environment: XmlBeans
> Reporter: Michael Hedenus
> Fix For: unspecified
>
>
> Currently there is no public interface to check if an XmlObject is orphaned;
> there is only a protected method in XmlObjectBase. Consider following
> situation:
> 1) The XmlBeans data model is display by a GUI (e.g. JTree).
> 2) The data model is changed, e.g. an element is deleted.
> 3) The GUI is repainting but the element that shall be displayed is orphaned
> and an exception is thrown. This exception must be caught to keep the GUI in
> a valid state or even alive.
> The last point is the reason why I consider the problem as a bug.
> Of course it is always possible to surround the accessing of XmlBeans with
> try-catch but I think this is neither the intention nor a good solution.
> I propose two possible solutions:
> 1) instance method for XmlObject: isOrphaned()
> 2) static utility function: XmlBeans.isOrphaned(XmlObject)
