Hi Mark,

this is currently not an option with Castor. But given the increasing frequency of people asking for precisely this feature, I am more than willing to look into this - given that there's input from the folks requesting this.

Hi,

I have been exploring Castor for some time now, but couldn't find an
answer to the issue I'm facing.

I need to dynamically generate element names from the keys of a HashMap.
For instance, if my map looks like :

{ 'color' =>  'red', 'size' =>  'xl', 'price' =>  10.0 }

I'd like the XML fragment to look like :

        <color>red</color>
        <size>xl</size>
        <price>10.0</price>

This looks like bad practice, but the actual values of the keys in the
map are constrained making it possible to define a schema against which
to validate the generated XML. Moreover, it is impractical to define
classes having fields for every possible key of the map. Hence the need
to try a dynamic element generation approach.

Any clues welcomed !

Mark
