Subject: [Digester]How to populate a HashMap?
How would I go about doing the following using Digester?
Given XML as such:
<library>
<book>
<title>TITLE TEXT</title>
<author>AUTHOR TEXT</author>
</book>
<!-- multiple books to follow -->
<book>
...
</book>
</library>
Assume there's a Book bean with title and author properties.
How can I make the digester read in the books and put them in a HashMap by
title? I can't see how to pass the object on the top of the stack as an
argument to a method call.
