Currently the
XSD->Java source generation can produce JavaBeans with bound
properties. These JavaBeans are serializable. Due to the design
of the generated code, PropertyChangeListeners added to
the JavaBeans also get serialized. In our case the serialization of
these PropertyChangeListeners is generally not desirable, and actually
prevents the use of serialization.
I propose a change
to the generated JavaBeans where the listeners are transient such that they are
not included in the serialization/deserialization process (see http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/CASTOR-1152 for the
patch).
Is this approach
applicable to your project(s)? Is there a case for including
PropertyChangeListeners in serialization? Is there a need for an option to
enable/disable this feature when generating the JavaBeans, or is it valid to
have the listeners always be transient?
I'm looking for
feedback on this issue and hoping that someone on the committers list takes
interest.
Thanks,
David
