Hi,
We are using Castor XML for marshaling / unmarshaling java objects.
We provide map files to specify xml tags to use.
I am having problem unmarshaling fields with simple types "char" and "byte".
In the map file I specify the type of the field as "char" and "byte"
respectively.
But it blows with the following exception:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Type conversion error: could not set
value of value(java.lang.Character)
with value of type java.lang.String
The marshaling part does not seem to have any problem only unmarshaling
fails with the specified mapping file.
The marshaling/unmarshaling work properly if I don't specify any mapping
file (but I need to use mapping files).
Did I miss anything here. I even tried specifying "java.lang.Character.TYPE"
as the type instead of "char".
I still does not work. Please let me know what should I do.
Attached herewith are the files I use.
Thanks,
Bikash.
