Betreff: AW: [sdo] [NEW ISSUE] XML Fidelity issue: attribute properties in a sequenced type

Hi Frank,

your proposal is convenient for attributes but it is not the perfect solution to get all properties that are not in the sequence. There could be properties that have a containment property as opposite. These properties are not attributes and not in the sequence.

Regards,
Stefan.

Betreff: [sdo] [NEW ISSUE] XML Fidelity issue: attribute properties in a sequenced type

Here is another XML fidelity issue that may be related to the 
cast(Node.class) discussion. The problem is described in section 2.3 in 
this doc:

http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/sdo/download.php/26722/SDO_XML_Issues.doc

I'm wondering if others agree that we need a better way to access the 
attributes, and if so, do you think there should be a "nice SDO way" or 
would it sufficient to support this only if an implementation supports 
casting to Node:

    NamedNodeMap attributes = 
mySequencedDO.cast(Node.class).getAttributes();

If we wanted an SDO API for this, it would probably need to go in 
XMLHelper, or, if we agree that Sequence is really only for XML, then we 
could add a method to Sequence:

    Map<String, Property> attributes = 
mySequencedDO.getSequence().getAttributes();

What do others think about this issue?

Thanks,
Frank
