In my application code, I've attempted to implement a somewhat generic
content aware comparison. Would anyone care to review this and let me know
if it seems correct? If it is a sound approach, should I look to make a
patch adding this to xmlbeans proper?
Thanks,
Wesley

private boolean objectEquals(final XmlObject a, final XmlObject b)
{
if (a == null)
{
if (b == null)
return true;
else
return false;
}
if (b == null)
return false;
if (a instanceof SimpleValue)
{
if (b instanceof SimpleValue)
return a.valueEquals(b);
else
return false;
}
final SchemaType sa = a.schemaType();
final SchemaType sb = b.schemaType();
if (!sa.equals(sb))
return false;
// compare attributes
for (final SchemaProperty property : sa.getAttributeProperties())
{
final XmlObject pa = a.selectAttribute(property.getName());
final XmlObject pb = b.selectAttribute(property.getName());
if (!objectEquals(pa, pb))
return false;
}
// compare elements
for (final SchemaProperty property : sa.getElementProperties())
{
final XmlObject[] ea = a.selectChildren(property.getName());
final XmlObject[] eb = b.selectChildren(property.getName());
if (ea.length != eb.length)
return false;
for (int i = 0; i < ea.length; i++)
objectEquals(ea[i], eb[i]);
}
return a.valueEquals(b);
}
