Thank you all for the quick responses. They were very helpful.
My XML is well-formed, so I ended up implementing my own FieldType:
public class XMLField extends TextField {
public void write(XMLWriter xmlWriter, String name, Fieldable f) throws
IOException {
xmlWriter.writePrim("xml", name, f.stringValue(), false);
}
}
I looked at the XSD and there is one thing I don't understand:
If the desired way is to conform to the XSD (and hence the types used in XSD),
then how would it possible to use user-defined fieldtypes as plugins? Wouldn't
they violate the same principle?
thanks,
mirko
