Re[2]: [XML][Deployment]POJO design?

[Lyndon Samson <sa...@dodo.net.au>]

You could of course just use properties, with overlay accessor classes providing
particular views and type safety.

Just flatten
  <des>
        <item>
                <val>1</val>
        </item>
  </des>

to

 des.item.1.val.1=1

The starting point of all this.... was that it was decided that we want POJOs as
the in-memory representation of DDs.  So properties would not meet that requirement.

I'm not the best one to say why we want POJOs - I was happy using DOM :-)

But look for the "parsing XML" discussion last week for the reasoning.
