Hi Radu,
thanks for your help. I forgot to work out my need for the typed values:
Given an array of XmlObjects, I am supposed to deliver a sorted list of
the distinct values.
With your hint my code actually looks like this:
Set extractDistinctValues(XmlObject[] xoArr) throws .CompareFailedException... {
SortedSet result = new TreeSet();
for (XmlObject xo: xoArr){
if (xo instanceof org.apache.xmlbeans.impl.values.XmlObjectBase){
result.add(((XmlObjectBase)xo).getObjectValue()));
} else if (xo instanceof XmlAnySimpleType)
result.add(((XmlAnySimpleType) xo).getStringValue());
} else{
// trying to extract textValue from Cursor
result.add(getTextValue(xo.newCursor())); // dispose Cursor inside!
}
}
return result;
}
If I skipped the first if-closure with its use of
(XmlObjectBase)xo).getObjectValue(),
sorting would be done on Strings, even if xoArr contains Integer-Values
only.
So what I'm actually looking for, would be
(XmlAnySimpleType)xo).getObjectValue().
Is there something like that?
Thanks in advance,
Siggi B.
