Nischala, if you asking about how to use the type org.exolab.castor.types.Date when mapping classes to a RDBMS schema, I am afraid this won't work out of the box .. ;-). Let me know what your (real) intention is, and we'll take care of your problem. It has just happened that we (the committers) discussed this very issue a couple of weeks ago, and the fix should be straightforward.
