Cool. Looks like the thing I'm after. But I have a couple of questions.
Will I have to write the ClassLoader for this? If so, do you know of any examples I could have a look at? Will the fact that the .xml file has recursive tags ( ie I can have <X><X></X></X>) in the structure cause any major headaches in turning this into a loaded bean?
