Hi,

I've been trying to figure out how to define an Attribute that allows the use of CDATA within the body of the <property> element. For instance:

<property name="documentation" class="org.kepler.moml.DocumentationAttribute">
  This is some docs...
</property>

I don't see any current Attributes that will do this and upon looking at the MoMLParser code, it doesn't look like they can do this because the _handlePropertyElement() method is called before the charData() method gets called to handle the character data inside the element. This seems to limit the xml author to only including text inside the "value" attribute of the element. This would normally be fine, but I would like to include a lot of text. Maybe hundreds of lines. Putting the text into the "value" attribute doesn't lend itself to this very well.

So, my question is, am I missing something and if not, would anyone object to me modifying the MoMLParser to be able to accept CDATA in leiu of the "value" attribute in a property element?

thanks,
chad
