Yeah, we’re hitting a limitation of Java here. Basically we’re
missing
a keyword allowing classes of a sub-package to access the method.
Making
it public with a proper comment is still the less ugly way to do
in my
opinion.
I'll go for this one, then.
Come to think of it, maybe the cleanest way is:
* add the following to FONode:
public static void validateChildNode(FONode thisNode, Locator...)
throws ValidationException {
thisNode.validateChildNode(...);
}
* the instance method itself can remain protected, but Wrapper could
get it to do something like:
FONode.validateChildNode(getParent(), locator, nsURI, localName);
