Hi
I note that we have lots of methods of the form
public void setFoo(String s) {
.. decode s and call setFoo(FooEnum)
}
public void setFoo(FooEnum e) {
}
And most of the time, the decoding process is identical for all of the
methods that take a given argument type.
I suggest that we teach BXMLSerialiser to look for methods of the form
public String bxmlFromString(T arg)
on the destination object, which it will use to decode the argument
from a string, and then call the real setter.
That should allow us to remove virtually all of our extra setFoo()
methods into an appropriate superclass (like Component).
