Castor uses the Xerces Serializer so the escaping problem would be
coming from Xerces not Castor. However you can use an element with
xml:space="preserve" as such:
<foo>
<endofline xml:space="preserve">
</endofline>
</foo>
The following trick works for me:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<mapping>
<class name="Foo">
<field name="value" type="string">
<bind-xml node="text" location="endofline"/>
</field>
<field name="space" type="string"
handler="com.acme.XMLSpaceHandler">
<bind-xml name="xml:space" node="attribute"
location="endofline"/>
</field>
</class>
</mapping>
where XMLSpaceHandler is the following:
package com.acme;
import org.exolab.castor.mapping.FieldHandler;
import org.exolab.castor.mapping.ValidityException;
public class XMLSpaceHandler implements FieldHandler {
public XMLSpaceHandler() {
super();
}
/* (non-Javadoc)
* @see
org.exolab.castor.mapping.FieldHandler#getValue(java.lang.Object)
*/
public Object getValue(Object object) throws IllegalStateException {
return "preserve";
}
/* (non-Javadoc)
* @see
org.exolab.castor.mapping.FieldHandler#setValue(java.lang.Object,
java.lang.Object)
*/
public void setValue(Object object, Object value)
throws IllegalStateException, IllegalArgumentException
{
/* empty */
}
/* (non-Javadoc)
* @see
org.exolab.castor.mapping.FieldHandler#resetValue(java.lang.Object)
*/
public void resetValue(Object object)
{
/* empty */
}
/* (non-Javadoc)
* @see
org.exolab.castor.mapping.FieldHandler#checkValidity(java.lang.Object)
*/
public void checkValidity(Object object)
throws ValidityException
{
/* empty */
}
/* (non-Javadoc)
* @see
org.exolab.castor.mapping.FieldHandler#newInstance(java.lang.Object)
*/
public Object newInstance(Object parent) {
return null;
}
}

Hi,
I'm trying to marshall a class with a field named "endOfLine" of type String which
typically contents "\r\n".
In the mapping file, I have:
<field name="endOfLine" type="string">
<bind-xml name="endofline" node="attribute" />
</field>
The problem is that castor does not replace during the marshalling the "\r\n" by
"
"
The consequence is that if I write the XML file and read it, the value
endOfLine is not the same.
If I read a XML file with "
" as values, it works fine.
Is it a way to tell to escape the charater of this field during the marshalling
?
Or is there another solution?
