I am not sure what your question is asking Szabo, but it is possible to have
an attribute with a collection of objects. You will need to set the
attribute type to the class of object in the collection and set the
collection attribute to arraylist.

Subject: [castor-dev] references in collections


Hello,

We are thinking about how to write a mapping file (section) to describe a
collection (ArrayList) which contains a set of objects which are references
to an other part of our (to be marshalled too) modell.

Eg:
class A has a
private ArraList theList; //This list contains objects of type B.
with getter/setter

And in a larger view we have a type C which contains a lot of things, among
them a pool of type B, and possibly one-or-more type A (and here the list
points to some items of our pool).

class C has
private ArrayList cPool; // here are a lot of stuff of type C
private A pointerHolder; // that's of type A, and contains references to the
C instances in the pool
...

I hope it is clear enough to get some hints.

thanks in advance,
        Peter
