In looking at various MVC samples, I frequently see an Enum pattern used for menu population. I can follow/understand how a list of static constants are assigned, added to an array and passed around as a dataprovider.
I need to achieve the same result (Item/Index pair for the menu) from a runtime loaded xml file. I'm inclined to head in the direction of creating 2 VOs: 1 for each menu item (besides Item/Index I'm snagging stuff for tool tips and user status info.) & and second for the menu itself. So the class responsible for retrieving the XML source would then serialize to both VOs. Goose(Chase) ? Wild:Better Exists
