Hi, I just started using Digester yesterday and it has already saved me a lot of time. However, there is one thing which I haven't been able to figure out how to do that is making up for the time I saved. I have a condition under which a certain object should not be created from the XML. I am reading in menu contents from an XML file and I want to make the menu dynamic based on the user's permissions, known only at runtime. I could easily do this if I could just pass the permissions into the constructor when a new object is created or, alternatively, when setNext is called. That way I can determine at runtime whether or not the object should be saved or ignored, based on whether or not the user has appropriate permissions. Right now what I have to do is create the entire object then parse through it and prune the branches that shouldn't exist, which as you could imagine takes a lot of time. Are there any provisions for doing what I'm trying to do with Digester? If not, does anybody else think this would be worthwhile enough that I could implement the feature in Digester?
