Eww, yuck. :) More technically, that is not the best way to go if you care about performance or security. Performance -- Why should I bother to intern a string if it's an int? Cf, http://www2006.org/programme/item.php?id=5011 Security -- why should I let a bad-guy send me millions of bytes just to parse the number 23, unless I like DoS attacks? (Of course, a really secure solution would have the schema beforehand, but that might not always be possible.) /r$ -- STSM, WebSphere Appliance Architect https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/mydeveloperworks/blogs/soma/
