Thanks Alex,
So, say I put a jar on the classpath with Foo and Bar in it:
class Foo {
public String fooProperty = "defaultText";
public void setFooProperty(String x) {fooProperty = x;}
public String serialize() {"""
x = new Foo();
x.fooProperty = $fooProperty;
x;
""";}
public Foo fromXWiki(String serialized) {Eval.me(serialized);}
}
class Bar {
public Foo barProperty = new Foo();
}
So I could have an XWiki class XwBar with a field barProperty
containing text that created a Foo, and while navigating a site that
uses an XwBar, deserialize barProperty into a Foo, possibly rinse and
repeat with its properties, and then display it some way.
Is this what you mean?

I think you can do what you want by defining your
recursive data types
in Groovy (you'll need programming rights on the wiki) and storing a
simplified version of them (e.g. type name and raw text data) in objects
of some custom XWiki class. You would just need to have some kind of
factory method to create instances of the corresponding Groovy classes
from the stored information on load or first access.

Thanks Arnaud, seems like the answer is that
XWiki is not capable of this?
From the page you gave me:
"XWiki currently supports the following kinds of properties
# Number
# String
# TextArea
# Password
# Boolean
# Static List
# Database List
# Database Tree List
# Date
# User List
# Group List"
I would have expected one of these options to be "Class". I need to
nest types in order to appropriately represent an xml schema.
Thanks anyway,
Travis

Hi XWiki people,
I need a "semantic" way to edit xml data. This is a project that could consume
a very large portion of my future time, but in the near term I'm looking for a
way to get this typed data into a wiki format so that the object graph can be
clicked through and offsite links can be managed.
First, I need to be able to have nested types. That is, a class has a field,
the type for which is a class I have defined elsewhere. I don't see a way to
do this in XWiki. Am I missing something? Seems like a typing system is
incomplete without being able to have classes have attributes of defined
types.
