[betwixt] Any plans to support enums?
hi,
are there any plans to support the new java language features introduced
with Java 5?
Especialy enums cause some trouble with betwixt. For a simple enum like
enum Suit {
CLUBS, DIAMONDS, HEARTS, SPADES
};
im getting an output like
<test-betwixt$-suit>
<declaring-class>
com.triplemind.test.TestBetwixt$Suit
</declaring-class>
</test-betwixt$-suit>
so I always need a workaround pair of getters/setters to use them with
betwixt.
regards,
Christoph

Posted by robert burrell donkin <ro...@blueyonder.co.uk>.
enums (in general) have been hanging around in the todo's for a long
while now.
support for various specific types of enum (eg lang and 1.5) would have
to done in optional jar's to avoid a core dependency.
i had some design ideas a while ago about how to do them but i've
completely forgotten so i can't say: adding support is really easy so
why doesn't someone volunteer to code it ;)
if you'd be willing to contribute some unit tests for your use case,
that'd probably increase the likelihood of me looking into coding it.
