Hi all,
I'm new to Castor so you'll have to forgive me if this is a dumb
question! :) Given the sample XML and mapping below, is there any way of
preventing the <input> element which appears within the <custom> element
from being unmarshalled using the Input class? The primary reason for
doing this is that the contents of <custom> are arbitrary (hence the use
of AnyNode). It just so happens that in this case the element happens to
match a previously defined element name.
Sample XML:
<device>
<input>
<!-- 'input' children omitted for brevity. -->
</input>
<output>
<!-- 'output' children omitted for brevity. -->
</output>
<custom name="theName" type="theType">
<input>
<!-- 'input' children omitted for brevity. -->
</input>
</custom>
</device>
Sample Mappings:
<class name="Input">
<map-to xml="input" />
<!-- Fields omitted for brevity. -->
</class>
<class name="Custom">
<map-to xml="custom" />
<field name="name" direct="true" required="true">
<bind-xml name="name" node="attribute"/>
</field>
<field name="type" direct="true" required="true">
<bind-xml name="type" node="attribute"/>
</field>
<field name="data" direct="true" required="true"
type="org.exolab.castor.types.AnyNode">
<bind-xml matches="*"/>
</field>
</class>
Any help appreciated!
Regards,
Chris
