Not sure I follow. Apart from the fact that I was helping myself to a
language feature that won't be present in Java until 1.5 (concise array
literals) that *was* plain Java.
Without concise array literals you'd have,
Element e =
new Element(
"html/("+
"head/("+
"title/text(%0),"+
"link[@rel='stylesheet',@type='text/css',@href=%1]),"+
"body/text(%2))",
new Object[] { "Example 3", "/ss/style.css", "Hello World" } );
which isn't much uglier, and, given a suitable a base library, would
work with any Java compiler right the way back to 1.0.
Cheers,
Miles
