createXMLName

public java.lang.String createXMLName(java.lang.Class c)

Creates the XML Name for the given class. It would be nearly impossible for this method to please every one, so I picked common "de-facto" XML naming conventions. This can be overridden by either extending org.exolab.castor.xml.Naming and implementing the proper methods, or by ClassDescriptors for your classes.

Specified by:

createXMLName in class XMLNaming

Parameters:

c - the Class to create the XML Name for

Returns:

the xml name representation of the given String

"Blob" becomes "blob" and "DataSource" becomes "data-source".
