What about the different semantics associated with different namespaces? Suppose you want the element and class names to be different, perhaps because you and your users work with different natural languages? (And I'll confess to having deferred the homework to finding out exactly how XML names and Java names differ! I'd expect them not to be the same.) The model I'm working with right now does include a mapping of name to class, but it's not direct (e.g. can be many to one) and is aware of namespaces. It can be statically configured (e.g. an XML element containing mappings -- embedded, or in a separate document) as well as algorithmically configured (i.e. a factory class). <<<<<<<<<<<<< Its completely insufficient. But it is a base level at which things will work. The package name can be ingnored as classes dont have to be in a package. (bad idea - but allowed) or a default could be used. The model I have working uses XML config files to specfiy the binding and allows the specification of more powerful delegation structures than simply inheriting from the w3c.node. I guess my point really comes back to having a variety of interfaces on the domBuilder that allow for as much or as little binding configuration as required. I think we need to pick up the XObjects discussion on the domBuilder interfaces. If this sounds like a good idea I'll sift through the contributions of interfaces / part interfaces and present those as a starting point? graham. gdm@d... xml-dev: A list for W3C XML Developers.
