Hi Bob,
You can do this in your own code, by getting the IXMLWriter and calling
the writeComment method. You can get the IXMLWriter from the
UnmarshallingContext, which is always the implementation class for the
IUnmarshallingContext, and you can get the IUnmarshallingContext as a
parameter to any user extension method or get/set method (so a method of
the form "String getText(IUnmarshallingContext ictx)" will be passed the
context when called to get the value).
The only tricky part is how you time the writing of the comment. pre-get
methods are called after the start tag of the corresponding element has
already been opened, which means they're great for adding namespace
declarations or attributes to the element but not a time when you can
write comments. So that leaves a get method as pretty much the only
alternative. If you want the comment preceding the element you'd need to
have the get method check that the corresponding value is actually
present, then write the comment before returning the value.
