If you only want to Marshal, and don't want to unmarshal then you can
use the following:
<class name="Person" verify-constructable="false">
..
</class>
As for your factory method, currently factory methods are only supported
on the parent class. There is no real technical reason for this
limitation, Castor should support factory methods that are on the actual
object as well as stand-alone factories, just need someone who has the
time to implement them.
