Hey John,
So Stripes 1.6 will have the ability to use factories with the
population strategy? Is this documented anywhere as far as how it works
or should I just peruse the code?
Not sure what you mean about subclassing, subclassing the population
strategy?
Why do you like or not like jaxb? XMLBeans not only uses "is" instead
of "get", but it also changes parameters names to plural for arrays and
such. It is also not Java 5 code and uses a goofy enumeration strategy
etc. It also uses arrays instead of Lists or Sets, sort of.... You use
the factory to add the elements and build the object from each parent
for the most part.
Main issue with JAXB at this point for me is that validation is goofy
and you need to cache the marshler or it is crazy slow.
I did a speed analysis and they are extremely close speedwise if you
cache the marshler with JAXB.
Thanks

Stripes 1.6 will have the object factory - anywhere newInstance() was
used is replaced with yourObjectFactory.newInstance(); .. this was
stable in the trunk when I last tried it out, about 2 months ago. The
@Before method probably wont work too well for very long. You could
subclass
We are currently using jaxb. It is definitely working fine for us, but
I've been lightly looking into a switch to xml beans. If you can use
that, I would try to stick with it. We had to hack our way through a
few custom plugins and xjc changes to get jaxb to behave correctly for
us. The biggest problem is they botched the boolean is/get convention

der/ .. among other things .. the other big one is they only use List<>
for collections, no Sets .. and absolutely forget about maps (which are
often so useful).

Subject: [Stripes-users] Bean Population with XMLBeans and Stripes?
Hello all,
I am working with XMLBean objects, Spring webservices and of course
Stripes. XMLBeans utilize factories to create new object instances for
an object graph like this:
obj = Object.Factory.newInstance();
newObj = obj.addNewObject();
The issue I have is that a given form may have information to build an
unknown set of objects on an object graph. We need to maintain this
flexibility as the pages are dynamic.
We want to use the XMLBean object as the form object on the action bean.
We could pre-instantiate the objects in a @Before method but this can be
messy and might leave us with object leafs that were not part of the
submission.
I have a few options as I see it:
* Convert everything to JAXB
* Figure out a bean population strategy hack that uses reflection
to automatically build objects based on the XMLBean convention.
Has anyone heard of any solutions for this issue? It looks like the
Stripes rolled BeanUtils does not support factories.
Thanks!
Alex
