Here's a binding question. I'm working with a record structure that can have seven different date fields, which are distinguished by element name: <dateIssued>, <dateCreated>, etc. They all have the same internal structure (several attributes, text content), and they're all optional and repeatable. Sounds like an ideal place to use a repeater widget called "dates", with a field called "type" in each row. This would be easy if the XML structure were "<date type='dateIssued'...>", but it isn't. I'm trying to figure out how to treat it as if it were.
First problem: can I use xpath-style boolean operators in the row-path of the repeater? (e.g. row-path="dateIssued | dateCreated | ..."). If not, is there some other way I can include all seven date elements in this repeater? Second problem: how can I bind the element name to the type field? I need a <dateIssued> element to come into the repeater as a row with type="dateIssued", etc. I also need to able to change its type to "dateCreated" in the form and have it written back to the XML output as a <dateCreated> element. Custom binding will obviously be necessary but I haven't got far enough into jx to see how to do this. Can someone point me to some sample code that does something similar, to get me started?
