Hi Theo, Alistair,
To set the namespace URI of a field whose name doesn't match it's
associated classes <map-to> xml name you can do the following in your
mapping file:
<mapping xmlns:ns1="my-namespace-uri">
<class ...>
<field name="name" type="MyNameType">
<bind-xml name="ns1:myName">
</field>
</class>
</mapping>
Notice the declaration of the "ns1" prefix in the <mapping> element and
it's usage in the bind-xml name attribute.
I hope that helps,
--Keith
