Keith,
Thanks for your reply, my original message was not very clear.
I have an "introspection-like" API that we use to wrap dynamic object
models. What I want to do is to use Castor to parse an XML schema and return
the JClass descriptions that I will then use to declare the classes and
fields to my API (I will then use JDOM as the way of reading the XML). The
idea is that I can present my XML and XML schema just like any other object
model using my own API (which is very similar to JClass).
It seems that I can almost do this by calling the SourceGenerator and
modifying it so that it does not write out the classes and just returns the
list of JClass's that it built?
What I was wondering was whether it would be possible to make some of the
APIs public so that I could manage this by derivation of your classes
without having to modify the original source code?
Thanks again and sorry for the first message which was not clear.
Julian
