Hi all,


I'm working on a project that doesn't have an official schema and was wondering if there was a way that I could tell simpleXML to ignore any element contained in the XML that wasn't contained in my class definition (I'm using Java).  Also, could I catch exceptions, particularly if I have defined an element in my Class structure that is then given to me as multiple elements in the XML (an inlined list)?  I only need certain elements from the XML, and have those defined in my Java Classes.


For example:


I define:


Class Human{


@Element
Int age;
}


And am given:


<Human>
<age>30</age>
<height>70</height>
</Human>


Is there a way I can tell SimpleXML to grab the age element and ignore the height element? I know I can add in a required = false height element, but I don't know which elements the people generating the XML might throw at me.


Thanks!
Tyler
