Hi all, i've run into a little problem here. Maybe someone has a solution or an idea how it could be solve.
Within an XML-Document there is an element which references another element. If
the referenced element is always of the same type I've got no problem by using
ID/IDREF.
Unfortunatelly in this case there is no way to tell what kind of element will be
referenced. Example:
-------------------------------------
<SERVICES NAME="S1">
<SERVICE ID="SID1">
<DATA>Wrzlprmpf</DATA>
</SERVICE>
</SERVICES >
<SERVICES NAME="S2">
<REF IDREF="SID1"/>
</SERVICES >
<CUSTOMERS NAME="C1">
<CUSTOMER ID="CID1"/>
<NAME>Holger</NAME>
</CUSTOMER>
</CUSTOMERS>
<CUSTOMERS NAME="C2">
<REF IDREF="SID1"/>
</CUSTOMERS>
-------------------------------------
As you can see element "REF" can reference a "SERVICE" as well as a "CUSTOMER".
So it is impossible to tell what kind of element will be referenced. As far as I
figured it out an ID/IDREF solution can't be used here.
Is there any way to tell "REF" and it's representing class that the referenced
object can be of any kind. I tried java.lang.Object but after a failed attempt
of compiling it, it was quite obvious to me why this couldn't work (shame on
me).
So, any suggestions or (even better) solutions will be highly appreciated.
@Dennis: Thank you so much for your great work and effort here.
regards,
Holger
