Hello,

We are currently trying to use JiBX

The problem is that we want to use the factorization properties of XML
without having to create ArrayLists in our binded classes. Here is an
example:

We have the following XML:
<cities>
   <area zone="1">
      <country code="FR">
         <city>
            <code>NCE</code>
            <zipcode>06000</zipcode>
         </city>
         <city>
            <code>PAR</code>
            <zipcode>75000</zipcode>
         </city>
      </country>
      <country code="DE">
         <city>
            <code>BER</code>
            <zipcode>123456</zipcode>
         </city>
      </country>
   </area>
   <area zone="2">
      <country code="US">
         <city>
            <code>NYC</code>
            <zipcode>111111</zipcode>
         </city>
         <city>
            <code>LAX</code>
            <zipcode>222222</zipcode>
         </city>
      </country>
   </area>
</cities>

Areas, countries and cities can all be repeated.
We would like to map this XML into the following class:

public class City {
   public int Zone;
   public String Country;
   public int Zipcode;
   public String Code;
}

The example would then produce a cities class having an arraylist of City
objects as follows:
City object 1 : Zone=1, Country=FR, Zipcode=06000, Code=NCE
City object 2 : Zone=1, Country=FR, Zipcode=75000, Code=PAR
City object 3 : Zone=1, Country=DE, Zipcode=123456, Code=BER
City object 4 : Zone=2, Country=US, Zipcode=111111, Code=NYC
City object 5 : Zone=2, Country=US, Zipcode=222222, Code=LAX

We haven't found a basic way to do this. What we can do easily is to create
a cities class with an ArrayList of areas, having themselves an arraylist of
countries...
Is there a direct way to get City objects as described ?


Thanks in advance and best regards,
Serge
