Ed:
Thanks for the reply. I don't want intrinsic IDs. After reviewing the source code, I see that in XMLHandler idAttribute is set to the value of xmlMap.getIDAttributeName() and in SAXXMLHandler, if an attribute exists with a name that is equal to idAttribute, then the extrinsic ID is set automatically. So I think what I want is something like:
XMLMap xmlMap = new XMLMapImpl();
xmlMap.setIDAttributeName("ID");
resource.getDefaultLoadOptions().put(XMLResource.OPTION_XML_MAP, xmlMap);
However, my concern is that I am already using ExtendedMetaData as an option on the same resource. I am wondering if it is a good idea to use both options simultaneously. From other posts, it seems that it is not recommended. Please advise.
Thanks,
JT

JT,
If necessary (if the XML map option interacts badly; it wasn't designed
to be used with extended meta data) you can construct a specialized
instance of XMLHandler and set idAttribute directly.
