Re: [castor-dev] Problem with predefiined arrays while unmarshalling

[Uddhav]

This is the java source,
public class MyOrder {
    public String[] stringArr = new
String[]{"strElement1","strElement2","strElement3","strElement4"};
    public String[] getStringArr()
    {
      return this.stringArr;
    }

    public void setStringArr(String[] stringArr)
    {
      this.stringArr = stringArr;
    }
}

This is the mapping file,
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE mapping SYSTEM "mapping.dtd">

<mapping>
        <class name="MyOrder">
                <map-to xml="Order"/>
                 <field name="StringArr"
                        type="java.lang.String"
                        collection="array">
                       <bind-xml name="StringArr"/>
                </field>
        </class>
</mapping>

After unmarshalling I print the contents of stringArr and get the following
output,
strElement1
strElement2
strElement3
strElement4
strElement1
strElement2
strElement3
strElement4
i.e. twice the size of the intialised array.

I tried to add a method using set-method as
               set-method="addStringArr"
The corresponding java class has following signature
    public void addStringArr (String stringArr)

I found that the function is never reached so I tried changing
it to String[] from String. The behaviour is still the same.

Thanks,
Uddhav
