[castor-user] XML - Illegal Text data found as child of:

[Alan Talanoa]

Sent this out a few weeks back, im hoping this might catch someones eye this 
time around.

I get the following error when calling unmarshall. The Amount element is mapped 
to a BigDecimal value. Im not sure why this would cause a problem? The string 
value of "-1000" is handled by the BigDecimal string ctor.. Any ideas?

Illegal Text data found as child of: Amount
  value: "-1000"{file: [not available]; line: 2; column: 90}


My mapping file looks like this:

        <class name="Payment">
                <map-to xml="Payment"/>
                <field name="amount" type="java.math.BigDecimal">
                        <bind-xml name="Amount" node="element"/>
        </class>

And the XML is:
<Payments>
<Payment>
<Amount>-1000</Amount>  
</Payment>
