BharatDeva opened a new pull request, #7225: URL: https://github.com/apache/hop/pull/7225
## Summary This cleans up the XML serialization code for three core classes: - `Result.getXml()` - `ResultFile.getXml()` - `ValueMetaAndData.getXml()` The serializers now use `StringBuilder` and `XmlHandler.openTag(...)` / `XmlHandler.closeTag(...)` consistently instead of mixing helper calls with manual string concatenation. While updating `Result.getXml()`, I also made it safe for `Result.lightClone()`. A light clone intentionally does not copy rows, so `getXml()` should still be able to emit an empty `<result-rows>` section instead of assuming the rows list is always present. ## Testing Focused core tests: ```powershell .\mvnw.cmd -pl core -Dtest=ResultTest,ResultFileTest,ValueMetaAndDataTests test ``` Result: ```text Tests run: 12, Failures: 0, Errors: 0, Skipped: 0 BUILD SUCCESS ``` Whitespace check: ```powershell git show --check --oneline --summary HEAD ``` Result: ```text 1c5d40db Clean up core XML serializers ``` ## Issues Fixes #6951 Fixes #6952 Fixes #6953 ------------------------ Thank you for your contribution!
