> * Cgen config
> * ER and Class diagram
> Possible linked tasks CAY-400 and CAY-56
> Here is main API for project extensions:
> {code}
> public interface ProjectExtension {
> /**
> * @return delegate that handle loading phase of XML processing
> */
> LoaderDelegate createLoaderDelegate();
> /**
> * @return delegate that handle saving phase of XML processing
> */
> SaverDelegate createSaverDelegate();
> }
> public interface LoaderDelegate {
> /**
> * @return target namespace that this extension is using
> */
> String getTargetNamespace();
> /**
> * Create handler that will handle parsing process further.
> */
> NamespaceAwareNestedTagHandler
> createHandler(NamespaceAwareNestedTagHandler parent, String tag);
> }
> public interface SaverDelegate extends ConfigurationNodeVisitor<Void> {
> /**
> * @param encoder provided by caller
> */
> void setXMLEncoder(XMLEncoder encoder);
> void setParentDelegate(SaverDelegate parentDelegate);
> SaverDelegate getParentDelegate();
> }
> {code}
