Most data binding tools (I assume that's what you mean by a code
generator) would allow you to extract the inner XML and parse/validate
it using the code generated for DataNode. If a data binding tool you
are using support customization, then you might be able to customize
the type generated for DataWrapperNode so that this parsing/validation
happens transparently to the user.
