That is why I suggested a Map to call the parser.
the parser would then fill the map and return it.
so if you used a third party parser you would have to change it to load
the map and return it. I did this with the OpenAS2.
The discussion is more about once the map is return how the service will
integrate the data into ofbiz.
as an example you take the basic service for Order entry and make a new
service that uses the map returned by parser to enter the order.
