Re: [castor-user] need to wrap all values in CDATA

[Keith Visco]

A custom field handler won't work as Marc has found out the serializer 
will encode the '<'. The serializer believes that you are trying to 
output a string value of "<![CDATA[...]]>" and that you'll want that 
same string value to be read back in exactly during xml parsing, so it 
encodes the characters so that an XML parser won't get confused into 
thinking the '<' is the start of an element or CDATA section.

The only way around this is to use your own serializer or to configure 
the Xerces one as suggested in Stephen's post.

Stephen,

Thank you. I'll give it a try. It looks surprisingly similar to the
GeneralizedFieldHandler that I wrote. I have this method

public Object convertUponGet(Object value) {
       value = "<![CDATA[" + value + "]]>";
       return value;
}

but the first "<" gets escaped as &lt;


Marc,

I was just going to suggest writing a custom field handler as a
solution. See the following for more info:
