Dear Jellyers,
I'd like to propose an addition to the XMLOutput class, used throughout Jelly:
a method called data() (or object) accepting any object.
By default... take the toString and call characters...
Actually, this is the way it is done with the return value of a Jexl expression as part of a text node.
But the interesting comes in the non-default case:
- a math library could return a polynomial or numerical type... and this could then be further evaluated by parents
- the arg element of jelly could actually avoid special treatment as it has currently
- most of my interest applies for jelly-swing: the components would then want to call data(component) on the xmlOutput. The latter could be filtered by constraint-tags to call data(component-with-constraints). Finally, container tags could, also, filter, and receive the resulting data and add it.
I would look forward to comments !
paul
