[FleXML-Users] What about a foreach tag?

[Martin Q. <mar...@lo...>]

Hello,

I was thinking about implementing a foreach tag able to multiplicate
the xml.

For example, having the following in the file:
  <foreach variable=3D"i" values=3D"1 2 3 4">
   <plop key=3D"$i" />
  </foreach>
would be equivalent to having the following:
   <plop key=3D"1" />
   <plop key=3D"2" />
   <plop key=3D"3" />
   <plop key=3D"4" />

It's somehow close to xsl transformation, but it would be embeeded
directly in the XML, not in a separate file. Also, the syntax would be
a bit different.

I have ideas about how to implement the beast, I was just wondering
whether having this in flexml (maybe enabled by a command-line option)
was ok for you guys, or if it was too specific to my own needs to be
placed in the main tree.

Bye, Mt.
