Hello,
We've been using
castor for a while now, and we've come up with the need to marshall/unmarshall
XML structures that may contain variable or arbitrary XML
data.
Part of the XML
structure will be known, and another part will be "user defined" at runtime and
therefore variable in it's structure. (like user defined
values)
What would be a good
approach for getting this to work?
I was thinking of a
few approaches:
- using a property
bag approach- values are stored in HashMaps instead of discrete bean
properties;
- dynamically code-gen a java class and mapping
file at runtime and using reflection to read the values
(ugly)-???
I don't think this
is an uncommon scenario- I hope someone has already put some thought into
this.
Thanks for any
help.
