--------------------------------------
Summary: Find some clean way to put {{Anchor}} functionality in
public API
Key: SIS-72
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SIS-72
Project: Spatial Information Systems
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Utilities
Reporter: Martin Desruisseaux
Assignee: Martin Desruisseaux
XML documents can use "anchor" in basically any place where our API returni a
{{CharSequence}} or {{InternationalString}} object. Anchor replace a text by a
reference to a text defined elsewhere. We do not have a clean way to expose
this functionality in current API. Currently, we have an {{Anchor}} class in
internal API, which extend the {{XLink}} class but implement the
{{InternationalString}} interface. We probably don't want to put such trick in
public API. But we may consider the following alternatives:
* Provide a {{createAnchor(String, URI)}} method in the {{Types}} utility class.
* Define {{Anchor}} as a sub-type of {{SimpleInternationalString}} with a
{{XLink}} attribute.
