I'll try. I may be able to hand edit.

----------------------------------------------------------
Is it possible that you changed the line endings, such that every line looks
like it changed? I believe it used UNIX/OS X line endings (LF) originally.
If you are on Windows, you may have unintentionally changed it to CR/LF.
Maybe you could try changing the line endings to LF and regenerate the
patch, to see if that fixes the problem?
was (Author: gbrown):
Any chance you could try to regenerate this patch? It is tough to see
what actually changed because so many lines are flagged.

> Add an annotation called @ContentProperty that specifies the default
property to attach children to in the serializer. I found that I was making
mistakes when creating WTKX that this annotation and a default "child
attachment" approach could help. Benefits include:
> a) The client does not need to know which property to attach the children
to.
> b) To add objects to a collection the parent object does not need to
extend from sequence. The sequence can be contained in the object instead of
implementing the interface. Containment can be another approach to getting
content into the parent objects versus inheritance.
> c) You can change some of the properties in the class where attachment
occurs and your WTKX files do not have to change.
> The default mechanism would be similar to what exists today. It's a simple
extension of it. The "attach child" search would be:
> a) If the content property is specified, use that property to add the
child to. If the content property is a collection, add it to the collection.
> b) If the content property is not specified,
> b.1) If the parent object is a collection (this is how it is handled
today) then add it to the collection using the List.add(Object) method.
> b.2) Add it to the property specified in the XML. This is also how it is
handled today.
> I wrote this for a small modeled framework similar to pivot and could work
up a couple of patches for this. This is very similar to how wpf handles
child content specifications in XML. Thoughts?
