I found an alternate solution. I changed the SourceBuilder so that for
elements xxx it creates:
void setXxxCollection(java.util.Collection)
java.util.Collection getXxxCollection()
And then I used the 'get-method' & 'set-method' attributes on the
XML "field" element to select the new methods. Once I changed the
'collection' attribute to 'collection' it worked like a champ.
Attached in the diff of my CVS tree.
