I love the idea of cross-language support for JiBX, but it's probably a better topic for the jibx-dev list, rather than the jibx-users list. So go ahead and ask your questions there, Hans-Martin.

Hi Hans-Martin,

Interesting post, for me personally, but only because Smalltalk is one
of those things that I occasionally dabble with since reading
SmallTalk Best Practice Patterns had such an influence on my Java
style. I don't use Smalltalk professionally. As you say, it might be a
little OT!

Hello,
for a project I've been searching for a good flexible mapping from
Smalltalk objects to XML data and back. The JiBX binding mechanism
mostly fits the bill (except that the language is wrong :-) .) I have
not looked at the JiBX implementation at all, just the (excellent) website.
So I've written a rudimentary SiBX implementation whose goal is not
primarily performance but versatility. However, due to the differences
in languages (Smalltalk does not have typed variable declarations), I
will probably have to divert from the JiBX definition a little, but I
want to keep that to an absolute minimum so that the bindings I define
for Smalltalk can be used for Java with very small changes.
Up to now I have a self-referential definition (my SiBX classes can read
the binding file for SiBX and can bootstrap themselves). I expect to be
able to represent more complex bindings sometime later this week, and I
will probably have some questions by then...

Would this kind of questions be considered off-topic for this mailing
list, or is it ok?

Cheers,
Hans-Martin
