to the extent I understand the discussion.... :-D How about 2 java classes for the message, one with annotations, and the other using @Override if its implementing an interface, and data for the fields of the objects, and the one or more strings or other data objects extracted and combined from them? thanks david jencks > > > p > >> thanks >> david jencks >> >> On Jun 25, 2010, at 7:55 AM, Simone Tripodi wrote: >> >>> Hi all, >>> I'm here to call a new vote to define our design direction.
