> XML schema for ESB allows <property> tag to have any XML content,
> and it allows for elements using tags <property> as its children to declare
> any set of properties.
> That makes XML quite flexible, but the ESB editor based on that only cannot
> assist customers in setting specific properties. We have only common form
> for editing elements described as ANY in dtd/schema.
> What is done for presentation of <route-to> and <object-path> is just a small
> portion of what ESB editor may be customized into.
> It seems that since actions, for instance, are based on Java classes,
> the structure of a specific action is well defined by its Java class,
> both property names and their types.
> It means that each action Java class could contribute to XML schema and specific
> forms in ESB editor.
> Of course, it may not be reasonable to complicate actual ESB XML schema,
> but editor may be based on an extended schema.
> So, do you think that ESB editor should recognize some specific objects
> (e.g. action based on org.jboss.soa.esb.actions.ContentBasedRouter)
> and implement for them more sophisticated set of forms and
> context commands than those based on generic schema?
