Hi Gundolf,
This is a known issue. Castor assumes (and sometimes erroneously) that
the "get" method returns an actual reference to the collection. So if
"get" method does not return null, Castor will use the returned
collection to add the elements. Since it assumes it has an actual
reference it doesn't call again the set-method (it should, but it
doesn't).
If the get-method returns null, Castor will create a new instance and
call the set-method.
Sorry for the incovenience.
