Hi,

I would like to know how to access the metadata of the form such as app
name, form name, title etc. If I see the XHTML source in the Form Builder
(using Edit Source link), it looks like this:

           <xforms:instance id="fr-form-metadata" xxforms:readonly="true">
               <metadata>
                   <application-name>testapp</application-name>
                   <form-name>testform</form-name>
                   <title xml:lang="en">Application for Citizenship</title>
                   <description xml:lang="en"/>
                   <author/>
                   <logo mediatype="" filename="" size=""/>
               </metadata>
           </xforms:instance>

I would like to access this metadata programmatically in a Java serverside
file (say, in my REST API persistence layer).

Optionally, I would also like to know how to add new metadata while
designing this form. For example, in my case, I want to store the department
name this form belongs to. Can I simply add the tag <department>My
Department</department> to the XHTML source? Is there any automatic way of
doing this since I will have to do this on hundreds of forms.

Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers,
K
