[xsd-users] Non intrusive data structures

[Barrie Kovish]

I'm using the XSD tree mapping.  I'd like to be able to move elements around the XML document without changing the address of the elements.  For example suppose I have

<Dealer id="A">
    <Car id="1">
        <Color>
            Red
        <Color>
    </Car>
    <Car id="2">
        <Color>
            Blue
        <Color>
    </Car>
</Dealer>

<Dealer id="B" >
    <Car id="3">
        <Color>
            Red
        <Color>
    </Car>
    <Car id="4">
        <Color>
            Blue
        <Color>
    </Car>
</Dealer>
  
In code I want to keep a list of pointers to all Red cars.  But if I move car id 1 from dealer A to dealer B the address of the XSD data structure will change.  Is there a way to generate XSD classes which save the Car elements as pointers?

Thanks,

Barrie
