The latest CVS version does fix the problem with attributes being placed in the wrong class as described below. However I encounter other problems when loading my mapping file.
I get an InstantiationException (org.exolab.castor.mapping.loader.Types.java method newInstance())when castor tries to load my mapping file. Castor complains that it can't call the constructor method. The reason for this:
in my XML schema file I have
<xsd:simpleType name="endPtType">
<xsd:restriction base="xsd:string">
<xsd:enumeration value="Originating"/>
<xsd:enumeration value="Destination"/>
</xsd:restriction>
</xsd:simpleType>
However SourceGenerator does not produce public constructor for this class. Instead SourceGenerator produces private constructor.
Has this problem been fixed or is there something new that I am not aware of.
Regards,
HC.

I haven't had a chance to verify your bug yet, but the version attribute
should definately appear in ProgramType and not ProgramTypeItem.
Which version are you using? If you are using the CVS version then it's
a definate bug which still needs to be fixed.

This is the correct approach.

This is not a good idea as it would lead to incorrect behavior.
