[Simple-support] Two-Phase support for CycleStrategy?

[Wolfgang F. <wf...@bi...>]

Dear Niall and other readers,

as an old forum thread points out:
http://old.nabble.com/Invalid-reference-td33813232.html#a33813232

ther error:

Invalid reference '39F1829A0306' found
org.simpleframework.xml.strategy.CycleException: Invalid reference
'39F1829A0306' found

is due to the fact that ref's can only point to already defined ids.

Since I can not guarantee this in the XML files I need to read in I have
thought about a two phase solution:
In the first phase instead of throwing Cycle Exceptions all cases where
the derereference can't be done are collected.
In the second phase the dereferencing is done when all references are
available.

What would be the best way to achieve this two phase approach?

Yours
  Wolfgang
