[Simple-support] Fwd: ElementList that includes null values

[Jorge C. <jms...@gm...>]

Hi,

I am using an @ElementList annotation, but the resulting ArrayList does not
include the empty elements found in the XML - I am "loosing" elements
(empty elements).

It also seems that I cannot use the @ElementArray since there is no way of
telling it that the elements are inline.

The partial XML:

<line id="001">
  <column>aaa</column>
  <column>bbb</column>
  <column></column>
</line>

<line id="002">
  <column>111</column>
  <column></column>
  <column>333</column>
</line>


The partial class:

@Root(name="line")
class Document {
  @ElementList(entry="column", inline="true")
  private ArrayList<String> columns;

  public Document(
    @ElementList(entry="column", inline="true") ArrayList<String> columns
  ) {
    this.columns = columns;
  }
}

Is there anyway to get the resulting ArrayList to include the empty </column>
elements?

Thanks and Kind Regards,
Bokie
