Hello :) a XML is only a String .... all properties (nodeValue) or attributes are strings... you must transform the type of your values with customs "deserialize" functions.
For me it's better to use JSON for example : http://www.json.org/ (you keep the primitive types of your objects with the serialize/deserialize) You can try to use my openSource framework "VEGAS" who implement JSON and EDEN (the best solution to text format datas) Install VEGAS : http://vegas.riaforge.org/ (use the SVN or the zip link in this page to download my framework) Test the JSON examples in VEGAS in the vegas.string package : http://svn.riaforge.org/vegas/AS2/trunk/bin/test/vegas/string/ Test the Eden examples (Burrrn library used in VEGAS) : http://svn.riaforge.org/vegas/AS2/trunk/bin/test/buRRRn/eden/ Test JSON and Eden extension in ASGard (extension of VEGAS) : http://svn.riaforge.org/vegas/AS2/trunk/bin/test/asgard/net/ (JSONLoader, EdenLoader) Test my example of Config pattern and localization pattern in http://svn.riaforge.org/vegas/AS2/trunk/bin/test/asgard/config/ (and bin/test/system) For me ... XML is slow and don't keep the typing ! EKA+ :) 2006/11/16, Julien Vignali <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Hi Rich, could you provide some sample code of your Settings class and your xml processing ? 2006/11/16, Rich Rodecker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > Hello, > > I've got a class named 'Settings' which has a number of properties.
