Hi Folks,
I need code that assembles parts together to create larger parts.
For example, consider this XML document: ------------------------------------------------------ <Document> <head id="head" idref="body" />
<body id="body" idref="leg" />
<leg id="leg" idref="toes" />
<toes id="toes" />
</Document> ------------------------------------------------------ It contains a lot of parts - head, body, leg, toes.
Each part references another part (except toes doesn't reference another part).
If a part references another part, I would like to inline the referenced part, and then recurses on the referenced part.
After assembly the document should be this: ------------------------------------------------------ <Document> <head id="head"> <body id="body"> <leg id="leg"> <toes id="toes" /> </leg> </body> </head>
<body id="body"> <leg id="leg"> <toes id="toes" /> </leg> </body>
<leg id="leg"> <toes id="toes" /> </leg>
<toes id="toes" /> </Document> ------------------------------------------------------
I wonder if this particular example is a special case of a general case of assembling parts together to create larger parts?
In any event, do you have some cool code that does the job?
Note that it's possible for a part A to reference a part B which references part A (i.e., circular reference). So the code must avoid going into an infinite loop.
