I'm writing an eclipse plugin to create a visual builder for clay components. What I would like to do is extend the ClayXmlParser to add a rule that will capture the description from the xml and set in into the ComponentBean. The reason I want to be able to do this is to display the description of each component in the visual builder.
Currently, the ClayXmlParser's configureRules method is protected which is a simple hook for me. However, the digester instance is private and there are no public/protected accessors. I have had to work around the use of private instance variables in a couple other scenarios in trying to build this plugin. I was just wondering if anyone was opposed to changing some of these instance variables to protected or adding protected accessors.
