Re: [dom4j-user] Mapping Schema - DataTypes to Objects

[David D. Lucas]

Try the following...

// snip
Object obj =
 ((Element)root.selectSingleNode("/record/field")).getData();
 if (obj instanceof java.lang.String)
 { .... }
// snip

Hi,

I wonder how to use the dom4j Schema capabilities to
get Java Objects mapped from XML elements like this :

<field name="foo" type="xsd:string">bar</field>

From the cookbook-example I got the impression that receiving

a java.lang.String object is quite that simple :

// snip
Object obj =
((DatatypeElement)root.selectSingleNode("/record/field")).getValue();
if (obj instanceof java.lang.String)
{ .... }
// snip

but it's not that simple, is it ? :)
(I just got an ClassCastException from DefaultElement to DatatypeElement)

help would be greatly appreciated !
