Do you vote +1 for both, Digester and XML Beans also dependent on the
Schema support?
What do you both think about the exchangability of the library?
I think we don't necessarily need XML Schema support because I believe
the mapping config xml file will not change very often (maybe during
development...)
Same opinion
I'm not sure if the mapping specification is really stable or if it will
get stable quite fast.
Pro XML-schema:
o Easier to keep the allowed XML structure in sync with the mapping model.
o The user can validate their XML file with the XML schema and we don't need
very much error handling in the application. I assume that XML schema can
validate more than Digester can because the schema knows the types, structure
and cardinality <se?lp=ende&p=/Mn4k.&search=cardinality>. But I don't know very much about digester, so I could be
wrong.
