Hi,

I'm not sure if XMLBeans is the correct tool for this, but I'll ask anyway.

I will have a situation where I will not know the schema until runtime.
So I think I need three things:
        1) Ability to create a schema "structure" at runtime.
        2) Use this information to parse the XML file
        3) Store it in a generic hash-table structure.

I believe that my data will end up looking like this:
<Data>
        <metadata>
                <field name="foo" type="xsd:string"/>
                <field name="bar" type="xsd:integer"/>
        </metadata>
        <datum id="1">
                <foo>one</foo>
                <bar>1</bar>
        </datum>
        <datum id="2">
                <foo>two</foo>
                <bar>2</bar>
        </datum>
        ...
</Data>

The metadata may exist in another file that has a well defined schema,
if necessary.

What I'd end up with is a list of a hash-table of appropriate XmlObject
subclass (XmlString and XmlInteger in this example).

I know this is not really what XMLBeans was designed to do, but can I leverage
the framework to do this for me?

Thanks,
-kevin
