Re: [Betwixt] Help : Writing collection of objects to sub element
instead of attribute
Hello Han Ming,
I'm also somewhat new to Betwixt, but have gotten a number of things to
work so
I'll take a crack at your question.
What do does you betwixt-config or .betwixt file look like for the
Person class?
I belive that if you're depending on betwixt to infer the output it
will assume
that properties are to be treated as xml-attributes of a given xml-element.
try placing an Item.betwixt in the same directory with the Item.java
Item.betwixt
--------------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<info primitiveTypes="element">
<element name="person">
<element name="id" property="id"/>
<addDefaults />
</element>
</info>
I'd expect the output to be what you were expecting:
> <?xml version='1.0' ?>
> <person name="John Smith">
> <items>
> <Item><id>a</id></Item>
> <Item><id>b</id></Item>
> </items>
> </person>

Hi Andy,
That's solve my problem exactly. :)
Just for information for beginner like me.
You can use this sample below.
Thanks again.
Cheers.
Han Ming
public class PersonBean {
private String name;
ArrayList items;
ArrayList products;
public ArrayList getProducts() {return products;}
public void setProducts(ArrayList products) {this.products = products;}
public ArrayList getItems() {return items;}
public void setItems(ArrayList items) {this.items = items;}
}
public class Item {
String id;
public String getId() {return id;}
public void setId(String id) {this.id = id;}
}
PersonBean.betwixt
****************************************
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' ?>
<info primitiveTypes="attribute">
<element name="person">
<element name="name" property="name" />
<element name="lotsofitems" >
<element name="oneitem" property="items" class="betwixt.Item" />
</element>
</element>
</info>
Item.betwixt
****************************************
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<info primitiveTypes="element">
<element name="item" property="item" >
<element name="id" property="id"/>
</element>
</info>
