Ok. I wonder what those methods should return and how the signature
looks like.
Do we need sth. like a Node class/object?
interface Node{
// We could move this from the repository interface
String getContentAsString();
Doucment getContentAsDocument();
However getContentAsHowever();
String/Property getProperty(String name);
List getChildren(); // Returns a list of Nodes...uups this should be
on the repository interface
}
I do not know if this is a good idea, but sth. should be returned.
What should be returned by repository.getChildren(....) ?
What about the signature?
Guido and others, I'm really curious about what u think of the
getChildren() method.
